HARRY BROOK claimed Chris Woakes delivered a "dagger to the heart" of New Zealand as England prepared to wrap up victory in the first Test.
Brook top-scored with 171 as the tourists ran up 499 on day three in Christchurch but was more than happy to split the credit with the bowlers.
Presented with a 151-run firstinnings lead, the English attack left the Black Caps hanging by a thread at 155-6 at the end of day three - a lead of just four with four wickets in hand.
Brydon Carse continued a highly accomplished start to his Test career with three more scalps, taking his match haul to nine but the killer blow was delivered by Woakes.
