Stuart Broad took the man of the match award at Lord's for leading the second innings demolition of New Zealand, but without James Anderson's first innings five-fer there might not have been much of a run chase for the Black Caps on day four.

Mr Predictor - India vs England, S Africa v N Zealand

A cricket betting video for Cricket World TV about the latest cricket betting odds as John Pennington and Alastair Symondson look ahead to the Twenty20 International series between England and India as well as South Africa and New Zealand. Fresh from winning the Test series 2-1, a confident England team will take on India who will be glad to get on to the pitch and away from being criticised from all quarters for their performance in the Tests. Neither side is at full strength however, with England missing their captain Stuart Broad as well as James Anderson and Steven Finn, meaning Eoin Morgan will captain and Joe Root, Stuart Meaker and James Harris will be looking to impress.
