New Zealand have claimed two England wickets before the close of play on day two of the decisive third Test in Auckland.
The tourists finished on 50-2 with Nick Compton (12) and Ian Bell (6) at the crease.
Alastair Cook (4) was the first man to fall as he edged Trent Boult's leg-side delivery to BJ Watling to give the hosts a breakthrough in the third over.
Boult then removed Jonathan Trott (27) with a delivery that seamed off the flat pitch and struck plum on the knee roll.
A review proved futile as umpire Paul Reiffel's decision was shown to be completely correct.
England will resume tomorrow trailing by 393 runs.
