England vs New Zealand Day: 1.


The awaited series started yesterday. Both the teams will be looking to go hard at each other and will be a great series.

1st Innings.
England have come out to bat first. They did not start well at all. They were 4 wickets down for just 30 runs. They were in deep trouble but then Joe Root and Ben Stokes played superbly. They recovered well but both of them were unlucky as they both missed out on a superb century. Then Ali and Jos also played well.
The pick of their batsmen was Joe Root who scored 98(161) balls with 11 boundaries to his name.
New Zealand bowlers were just superb. They started well as they got many early wickets and put the England team under pressure. They did put pressure for a long time. They then got wickets at the back end of the day. At the end of the day they were able to get 7 wickets of the England team.
The pick of their bowlers was Matt Henry with bowling figures of 24-3-93-3.
