Re 14:39. Vogel is cognate with English 'fowl'. So Vogler is the same as 'Fowler' in English.

Basil Butcher would happily prepare the meat for Alistair to Cook
Ashley, Bristol
Farokh Engineer, Vijay Merchant, and Nari Contractor from India surely deserve a mention in the professions XI.
Andrew, Marsden
One more single for Rachin Ravindra to end Matthew Fisher's over.
New Zealand have scored 13 runs and lost one wicket in the seven overs since lunch.

Jordan Cox, didn't have much time but he was a little late to it. It's another one of those where you wouldn't really expect the ball to go over there. great technique form him but it was a really, really tough chance.
Daniel Norcross
Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
He's dropped him! It would've been a really, really super catch. That went really, really sharply.
The plan almost comes off!
Fired down the leg side by Matthew Fisher, Daryl Mitchell goes after it and the ball absolutely flies towards Jordan Cox who has been stationed at leg slip.
The England debutant dives low to his left and gets two hands to the ball but can't hold on.
Mitchell takes a single to move to three.

Matt Fisher was a few years above me at School in North Yorkshire. For a charity event he bowled to some of the teachers and was promptly dispatched for six by the maths teacher Mr Akbar. Glad to see he’s put that behind him taking wickets on the biggest stage!

Sonny Baker is the first Sonny to play Test cricket for England and Jordan Cox is the first Jordan to play for England.
First boundary of the session.
Josh Tongue's 87mph delivery clips the leg of Rachin Ravindra, who can't get his bat on the ball to play the glance. It runs away for four leg byes.
Tongue then cuts his final delivery through the New Zealand number four - unclear if the ball took an edge before it died just in front of James Rew.

Some aristocratic cricketing profession surnames: Harry Duke, Heather Knight, and Lester King. Jos Buttler is the family retainer.

What about Mike Proctor? A proctor is a supervisor or monitor who oversees an examination.
Peter, Bristol
For professions, could we have Bert Vogler? Either a South African spinner, or a German bird-catcher.
Kit, Glasgow
Never heard of a 'Vogler' before, Kit. Every day you learn something new...
Careful, Daryl.
The New Zealand number five goes fishing outside off stump and comes pretty close to offering an edge behind off Matthew Fisher.

Josh Tongue looking to target the stumps, as he often does. 11% of his deliveries in Tests would have hit the stumps - Ollie Robinson is the only active England seamer with a higher percentage in the last five years.
Phil Tufnell
Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special
Your technique has to be spot on against Tongue. You have to be thinking about every ball that he bowls and very technically tuned in or it will be hitting you on the pad before you know it.
Daryl Mitchell comes in at five for New Zealand.
He gets down to the non-striker's end immediately, running a bye as a delivery from Josh Tongue, now coming over the wicket to the right-hander, flies down the leg side.
James Rew blocks, but is unable to entirely stop, the rising delivery.
Phil Tufnell
Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special
That's what Josh Tongue gives you. That angle just jagging in to Nicholls. He just gets you jumping about, makes your life awkward, even on a flat pitch.
Now England are thinking, crikey, we've done the hard work in the first session, now let's crack on.

Nicholls is bowled! Tongue's got through!
Nicholls b Tongue 24 (NZ 79-3)
Bowled him!
Henry Nicholls' first Test since last August comes to an end - the Kane Williamson replacement departs for 24.
He's hurried a touch by some extra pace for Josh Tongue, with the left-hander chopping onto his stumps from a delivery round the wicket that was a little short of a length.

It's mostly blue skies at The Oval, with a dusting of cloud.

A question for you... will Harry Brook bowl at some point in this session?
Josh Tongue takes the ball at the other end and, bowling round the wicket, he starts with a maiden to Rachin Ravindra.
A sharp delivery has Ravindra jamming his bat down, a little nick onto the pads for a delivery that was heading down leg anyway.

We need someone who is well turned out behind the stumps for the professions XI - I give you - Bob Taylor!
Jim, Haworth
How about the unforgettable Arthur Augustus Farmer, who was also a barrister.

John Shepherd - great Kent all-rounder.
