England Draw With New Zealand in Snorefest - And A Preview of the Second Test

England took on New Zealand in the first Test of the summer and, unfortunately, the match was not a thriller. After losing a day to rain the draw seemed inevitable until Kane Williamson tried to get things going at lunch on day 5. England, however, weren't interested and blocked out for the next 6 hours. The Cricket Podcast boys have a chat about all the "action" from the Test, including Conway's double-ton, Ollie Robinson's good cricket and poor off-field behaviour, and Root's inexplicable decision to not try and win the game.  In part two they look forward to the final Test. How will New Zealand line up with the WTC Final round the corner? Why suspending Robinson was correct? Who will take home the trophy (whatever it is called)?
