England fast bowler James Anderson has thrown an injury scare into his team's hopes of winning the second Test against New Zealand when he injured his left ankle playing soccer after the third day's play on Saturday.
Anderson, who took 5-73 to rip through New Zealand's first innings on Friday, was seen walking with the aid of crutches as the team left the Basin Reserve.
England were 277-9 at the close of play, a lead of 421, and will have almost two days to bowl New Zealand out and level the three Test series when play resumes on Sunday.
An England team spokesman told reporters the 25-year-old had turned his left ankle during a game of soccer between members of the England team after the day's play ended.
Oram fined
New Zealand all-rounder Jacob Oram was fined 20 per cent of his match fee for showing dissent at his dismissal.
Match referee Javagal Srinath found Oram guilty as he looked at his bat first and then punched it as he left the field after Australian umpire Steve Davis adjudged him lbw to Ryan Sidebottom.
