(Reuters) – England declared on 427 for six in their second innings early on the third day of the second test against New Zealand in Wellington on Sunday, setting the Black Caps an improbable target of 583 runs for victory.
The highest successful fourth-innings run chase in the history of the game was the 418 scored by West Indies to beat Australia at St John’s in 2003.
