‘We’re on the same path now’: Toney on good terms with Tuchel and awaiting his chance

England forward did not get off to the best of starts with the manager but after two fine seasons with Al-Ahli is ready for any opportunity off the bench

Stokes sparks England recovery as Duckett finds his groove against New Zealand

• Third Test day two: New Zealand 438; England 223-2

• Duckett scores 113 as hosts hit back at Trent Bridge
