England's Stuart Broad eventually dismissed Devon Conway on the second day of the second and final Test at Edgbaston on Friday to deny the New Zealand opener another three-figure score following his debut double hundred. South Africa-born left-hander Conway had made 80 when a casual and flamboyant flick off his pads against Broad flew straight to Zak Crawley at deep square leg.

At stumps, New Zealand were 229-3 in reply to England's first innings 303, a deficit of 74. Ross Taylor was unbeaten on 46.

Earlier, Conway, who made exactly 200 in the drawn series opener at Lord's last week, had faced 143 balls with 12 fours. Together with Will Young (82), he had added 122 after stand-in captain Tom Latham fell lbw to Broad for six before lunch.
