All the action from the first test between the Black Caps and England, from Lord’s.Day one reportThe Black Caps’ bowlers did their job, but there’s plenty to be done with the bat after 16 wickets fell on day one of the first test against England at Lord’s. While captain Tom Latham’s decision to bowl first was vindicated by his seamers knocking England over for just 140 in 39.2 overs, New Zealand limped to 61-6 at the close, 79 runs behind heading into the second day. The Black Caps’ hopes are pinned on Glenn Phillips (31 not out) and Nathan Smith (6 not out), as New Zealand’s last recognised batting pair. At the very least, though, the duo have taken the Black Caps’ score past New Zealand’s lowest total at Lord’s, 47 all out scored in 1958. That lacklustre showing with the bat took the shine off an excellent display from the Black Caps’ attack. For all the talk of a reset, or “Bazball 3.0″, England’s batting unit bore a striking resemblance to the one humiliated in Australia over the summer, and produced a meek performance against a Black Caps side that lost pace spearhead Matt Henry to back spasms, just four overs into the day.Kyle Jamieson picked up where he left off after two years out with a back injury, taking 5-62, and raising the ball for the sixth time in just his 20th test. The 31-year-old – who now boasts an incredible record of 85 wickets at an average of 19.3 – combined steepling bounce with accuracy to move the ball both through the air and off the pitch, and became the 22nd Kiwi to earn a place on the Lord’s honours board.

England’s scorecard could have been a whole lot worse were it not for 56 runs in 71 balls to Harry Brook – who was dropped on eight and 45 – and in all honesty deserved to be rolled for double figures. However, for all the criticism that’ll come their batters’ way, England’s bowlers began a salvage job to keep this test in their sights. Playing his first test since 2024, Ollie Robinson claimed 4-10, including 3-0 in his first over to leave the Black Caps’ innings in tatters. And even with rain forecast for four of the five scheduled days, both bowling attacks will believe they have enough to seal a victory – if their batting units can get them in front of the game. While Jamieson looked rusty on his return to test cricket, it didn’t take him long to regain his touch, and had England debutant Emilio Gay (8) caught at slip by Daryl Mitchell, as the only wicket to fall in the opening session before rain brought an early lunch. When play resumed two hours later, England slipped from 24-1 to 34-4, as the Black Caps’ seam attack fired. Fresh from career-best figures against Ireland, Smith trapped Ben Duckett (19) lbw, as O’Rourke joined in with the wicket of Jacob Bethell (6), before getting the prized wicket of Joe Root (1), caught behind by Tom Blundell to leave Lord’s stunned. England should have been 43-5, when O’Rourke had Brook dropped by Devon Conway at point, however Jamieson made sure the wickets kept falling when Jamie Smith (1) was bowled, leaving a ball that cannoned into his off-stump.While Brook counter-attacked at one end, the Black Caps continued to strike at the other, as Jamieson removed captain Ben Stokes (12), caught superbly by Kane Williamson at third slip, to leave England 94-6. Jamieson was denied his fourth, as Brook was given another life when he was put down once more – this time by Rachin Ravindra at deep midwicket, and raised England’s 100 at the same time, before steering through gully to reach his half-century in 64 balls, with 36 of those coming in boundaries.Gus Atkinson came and went for four, before he was trapped lbw by Jamieson at 108-7, who then took the catch to finally remove Brook for 56, when he flicked Smith straight to fine leg.At 118-8, and with the Black Caps eyeing the final English wickets, bad light intervened to end the second session, before Jamieson returned after tea to remove Robinson for his fifth wicket, as Smith wrapped up the innings when Shoaib Bashir (14) was caught behind.In response, Robinson struck thrice in his first over, trapping Conway (1) and Ravindra (0) lbw, either side of having Williamson (1) caught at short leg, to leave the Black Caps 2-3 just 12 balls into their reply. Latham survived the hat-trick delivery, but was out not long after to Atkinson, lbw for three, despite reviewing after thinking he’d hit the ball. Four years earlier, Mitchell and Blundell added 195 together for the fifth wicket. This time around, they managed only eight and four before both were bowled by Robinson and Josh Tongue respectively, before Phillips and Smith saw out the rest of the day.
