ENG vs NZ Live Score, 1st Test, Day 1: The opening day of the first Test between England and New Zealand at Lord's saw bowlers dictate the proceedings. Veteran seamer James Andreson plucked four wickets, while England debutant Matthew Potts too enjoyed a superb outing. The 23-year-old dismissed Kane Williamson on 2 as New Zealand were packed for 132 after opting to bat first. However, the action didn't end there and it was now the tourists' turn to produce a similar show with the ball. Quick bowlers Trent Boult, Tim Southee and Kyle Jamieson scalped two wickets each as England reached 116/7 at stumps on Day 1. Ben Foakes and Stuart Broad will get things moving on Day 2 as the hosts trail by 16 runs.
A concussion substitute in the form of Jack Leach took place in the first session of play. The spinner landed awkwardly while trying to save a four, following which he was withdrawn from the contest. Matt Parkinson has been named as Leach's replacement and will be making his Test debut in the ongoing encounter.
