Tickets have been made available free of charge for the final day of England's test match against New Zealand at Trent Bridge tomorrow.
Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club have decided to make tickets free for day five as England look to secure a second victory of the series. At the time of writing, England had taken four Kiwis wickets with the tourists leading by 175 as play draws to a close on the fourth day.
Daryl Mitchell and Tom Blundell are currently batting for New Zealand and are steadying the ship for the tourists. Supporters are being encouraged to donate to the Trent Bridge Community Trust either online or in person if they take advantage of free entry.

Those who bought paid-for tickets for day five in advance will still be able to use those to get into Trent Bridge but will be refunded. "With the Test Match between England and New Zealand set to come to a conclusion tomorrow, supporters can secure seats at no cost by ordering them online," a statement from Notts said.
"The decision to permit free entry has been taken by Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club after a frankly thrilling four days sent the contest into its final chapter with all three results still possible. "Those who have already secured seats for day five should use their existing tickets, but will receive a full and automatic refund in the coming days.
"Supporters are encouraged to make voluntary donations to the Trent Bridge Community Trust - the charity that delivers a variety of projects that have a profound and meaningful impact on lives across Nottinghamshire - should they wish to do so. Donation stations will be positioned at the entrances to Trent Bridge and online donations can be made. "For clarity, spectators will only be able to gain entry to the ground if they are in possession of a valid ticket prior to approaching the gates. We would heartily recommend securing seats online to avoid queuing at the Ticket Office on the day.
"We hope that this gesture will encourage first time visitors to join long-standing supporters at Trent Bridge and we can't wait to welcome you to our historic home."
