10 best drawn Test matches of the last decade

#4 New Zealand v England, Auckland, 2013

Panesar and Prior helped England escape with a draw

England and New Zealand were locked at 0-0 in the three-Test series back in 2013 when the teams arrived in Auckland for the final game.

Powered by a century (136) from opening batsman Peter Fulton and 91 from Kane Willamson, New Zealand posted 443 in their first innings. Then Trent Boult produced a virtuoso performance as he took six wickets and skittled England for 204.

From then on, it was all New Zealand as Fulton scored another century and the hosts set England a target of 481 in around a day and a half. By the time the 4th evening ended, England were on the mat at 90 for 4. Things continued in the same vein in the next morning as England slumped to 159 for 6 but then Ian Bell and Matt Prior rallied to offer some resistance.

However, even after Bell was dismissed, Stuard Broad supported Prior well and it was not until the 140th over that New Zealand got two quick wickets to reduce England to 304 for 9. However, England's last man Monty Panesar played out five deliveries and Prior defended stoutly to help England escape with a draw.
