NZ vs ENG Live Cricket Score

14 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Carse strikes soon after the break and removes the Kiwi skipper, Tom Latham who looked really confident. Brydon Carse bowls a fuller delivery, with that wobbled seam position, shapes it away from the batter on off. It lands it just does enough to nip away from Tom Latham. He gets on the front foot and closes the bat face early as he looks to flick it across the line. Hence, a healthy outside edge is found. The ball flies behind to the keeper and Ollie Pope does the rest. Tom Latham departs on 47 (54) and England get their second wicket. New Zealand are 62/2 after 14 overs.  62/2

2 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Couldn't be a more perfect start for the Englishmen! Gus Atkinson strikes in his very first over to get his first wicket. A big one, indeed! Gus Atkinson stays around the wickets and bowls a fuller one which tails back into the batter. It comes in from outside off, Devon Conway is drawn forward and goes for a front foot push down the ground. Fails to read the inswing and commits on the shot a bit early. Hence, the bat twists in his hand and the ball goes flat and low to the left of Gus Atkinson who takes a screamer of a catch by diving on his follow-through. He tumbles over with the momentum but maintains the ball in his hand. Sharp reflexes on display here from the pacer. Devon Conway departs on 2 and New Zealand are 4/1.  4/1

60.2 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Would you believe it? A century, not to be for Kane Williamson this time around as he falls just short of his 33rd Test ton. Atkinson bowls it on a short of a good length, just outside off. It lands and takes off from the surface with that extra bit of bounce. Kane Williamson uses the depth of the crease, leans back, and tries to execute the square cut off the back foot with an angled bat. But the ball gets a bit heavy on the right-hander as he goes through the shot. It goes flat off the higher part of the bat and straight towards Zak Crawley stationed at backward point. Crawley bends low to his left and takes a good sharp catch. Gus Atkinson comes into the attack and creates impact straightaway, gets his second wicket.  227/5

31.3 OUT! TAKEN! A much-needed wicket for England as Rachin Ravindra departs! Bashir dishes out a flat, low full toss, on off, Rachin Ravindra moves forward and looks to heave it across the line, but gets it off the toe-end of his bat. He is through in his shot and goes straight and flat into the hands of Zak Crawley stationed at short mid-wicket, who makes no mistake and takes a sharp catch. Shoaib Bashir beats the 68-run partnership and New Zealand are 130-3. Rachin Ravindra departs for a classic 47.  130/3

52.4 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Finally, a breakthrough for England and Carse halts this 69-run stand for the fourth wicket. He gets his second. With a stacked-up leg-side field, Brydon Carse bowls a short of a length ball, just on the waist height, around off, Daryl Mitchell stays in his crease and looks to take the aerial route to pull over the leg side. He is through in his shot a bit early and hence, a thick healthy top-edge is found. The ball swirls up in the air and travels towards the deep third fielder and picks the lone fielder in the deep. Harry Brook patrolling the deep fine boundary makes no mistake as he runs a couple of steps forward and pouches is safely. Daryl Mitchell departs on 19 and New Zealand are 199/4.  199/4

66 OUT! FLAT IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! This has been a brilliant session for England so far. Shoaib Bashir gets another one and snags the second wicket. New Zealand are 6 down now. Bashir bustles from over the stumps and bowls a flatter one, on a shorter length, just outside off and turning in from outside off. Tom Blundell is hurried into the shot as he goes back into the crease and just cuts it with an angled bat, but fails to keep it down and hits it flatly towards backward point. Gus Atkinson stationed at the mentioned position bends low to his right and takes a solid diving catch. Tom Blundell departs on 17 off 32. They have now slipped from 199/3 to 246/6.  246/6

69.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Shoaib Bashir gets his third wicket and New Zealand are in a huge trouble now as they have lost the fourth wicket in this session. Quicker and flatter from Shoaib, drifting in with the air, and turning in on the pads, Nathan Smith rocks back and goes for the flick but closes the bat face a bit too early and just chips it to short leg. Joe Root is well placed at short leg and he takes a sharp catch. Joe Root makes no mistake and pouches this safely. Nathan Smith, on debut, departs on 3 (13). England now slip further down to 199/3 to 252/7.  252/7

78.5 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Those tight lines and lengths to Henry have led to this rash stroke from the tailender. Tossed up and pushed through by Bashir, turning in around leg, Matt Henry shimmies down the track and looks to take on Ben Duckett at the fence. Henry miscues it off the cue end and it goes only as far as towards long on. Ben Duckett patrolling that boundary doesn't make any mistake and pouches this safely. A crucial cameo by Matt Henry ends as he departs on 18 (32). Bashir breaks another brewing partnership of 46 runs. New Zealand are 298/8.  298/8

84.1 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Brydon Carse makes an immediate impact in his very first ball and removes Southee! Gets his third wicket. Brydon Carse steams in from over the stumps and lands it on a good length, just outside off. It skids and nips away from the batter with an extra bit of bounce, Tim Southee gets the ball above his waist height and he just tries to drag the pull aerially to get it behind deep mid-wicket but the ball gets a bit heavy on him. Southee does go through the shot but mistimes it in the air. It goes only as far as deep mid-wicket where Gus Atkinson walks a couple of yards forward and takes a simple catch. Tim Southee departs on 15 (25) and New Zealand are 325/9 now.  325/9

91 OUT! BOWLED'EM! That's a beauty from Carse! He completes his 4-fer and wraps up New Zealand's innings in style. It couldn't be a better ball to bowl against a tailender. Carse steams in from over the stumps and bowls a pinpoint yorker on the stumps, William O'Rourke the tall man bends low and tries to jam his bat in the way, but gets beaten by the pace and the ball beats the edge of his bat before shattering the off and middle stumps. New Zealand finish at 348.  348/10

3.5 OUT! LBW! A huge appeal for LBW from New Zealand in unison and up goes the finger! Crawley walks towards Duckett and after a discussion, he walks back to the pavilion without reviewing it. Something was brewing up as Crawley just couldn't find the connection off the bat. Matt Henry strikes early and gets that breakthrough for his side. Matt Henry charges in from over the wickets and bowls with a wobbled seam position. Lands it full and angles into the batter off the deck as it jags back in a touch. Zak Crawley is trapped in front in search of room and plays over the wrong line and the ball zips past the inside edge to rap him on the front pad. Ball Tracking comes up later and shows that it could have been the umpire's call as the ball clipped the leg stump. England lose their first and are 9/1, trailing by 339.  9/1
