But they were just above 200+ lead overnight, so I was sure Cook wouldn't have the nerve to declare.
And if they played into the day adding only about 50 runs, it was eminently possible for NZ to claw their way back into the match.
But England managed to fold - which worked out for the best.
The only surprise was the margin - there was no doubt about the result, particularly once Taylor was gone.
