And I’ve just been able to be a sponge in a way and soak up all the information and experience that this team has. Just to sit in that changing room has been pretty special, and to sit here now on the eve of another Lord’s Test is pretty cool.” He’s a huge character of the game, one of the legends of the game and probably the greatest to have played it. You understand that things ebb and flow and you have a great perspective on the game. It's then a play and a push on the off side and another leave to finish up. I would like to think that the way I've operation over the last couple of years is to be that natural leader... Takes the edge and that is a superb take from Bairstow low to his left at slip! Anderson sends one in, Latham plays out to the off side a little wildly and it flies to Bairstow at a good height at slip... A sharp one this time as Conway pushes hard at it and it just about carries about a foot off the ground. Anderson gets the edge of Williamson but it's very soft hands and it lands about a yard or two short of second slip! Leach gets back up and heads to the pavilion. it sounds like there's a noise on its way through to Foakes but it could have just clipped the back leg.

However, the tourists managed just one more run before Potts struck again, and this time Blundell had no escape. The only negative for England was Jack Leach's injury, after he was forced to leave the field following a heavy landing on his neck while trying to stop a boundary.

Jonny Bairstow takes three catches as England remove Will Young, Tom Latham and Devon Conway in the first hour on day one of the first Test at Lord's.

17 wickets fell on day one of the first Test between England and New Zealand, as Ben Stokes' side bowled brilliantly before their batting line-up collapsed.

It meant an emergency call had to be made to Lancashire leg spinner Matt Parkinson to get himself from Manchester to London for an unexpected, but deserved debut as a concussion sub. It only took 13 balls for the evergreen Anderson, who turns 40 in July, to nudge his incredible Test tally to 641 scalps in the most familiar of ways and provide some early reassurance to his new coach and captain. And it didn’t even need a red arrows flyby to add to the drama on an action packed morning in North London that saw wickets falling, spinners tumbling, and substitutes driving.

With the loss of Lees for 25, England would have been more than happy for stumps to arrive but instead, Stokes arrived to face the music against Southee and faltered. England were 75 for two and former captain Joe Root joined Lees in the middle. He was sixth man down when he dragged Boult into his stumps for one with the score at exactly 100. Anderson had Kyle Jamieson and Southee caught hooking at fine leg to finish with 4-66, with Potts snaring Ajaz Patel lbw with the first ball of his second spell. Williamson is short of form and Potts has been flying in Division Two, but it was still a significant scalp. The early breakthroughs laid an ideal foundation for Potts to take over and made a superb case for the next generation.

Though he might have bowled himself out of a bash with the blade in this contest, such is the stranglehold England took on an exhilarating first morning, which included a 23-second salute to the late Shane Warne after 23 overs. That is just the kind of attitude this new England is looking to foster. He took his cap from Durham grandee Steve Harmison and had skipper Stokes, the king of Durham himself, 20 metres to his left at mid-off. The first day of the first Test of the summer. Potts was persuaded to focus on bowling by the Durham coaches on the premise he might fill out in the manner of his father, who stands 6ft 8ins tall. Since he loves batting as much as bowling he was never out of the game.

No evidence was offered up here either as he was dismissed tamely for seven in his first knock in the new position as he feathered an edge behind from the towering Jamieson. With the popularity of the Ashes and the fact that tickets will inevitably sell out regardless of price, this will be a major test of MCC’s public relations. By the end of the innings, Anderson had three more wickets – Tom Latham, Kyle Jamieson and Tim Southee – as he took four for 66 overall. Williamson is the No 3 ranked Test batter in the world but he could nothing about the 85 miles per hour delivery from Potts that kissed his bat and was skilfully gathered by diving England wicketkeeper Ben Foakes. For on a sun-drenched day at Lord’s, England’s bowling performance was as bright and optimistic as the weather. Will Young, victim of a spectacular low catch from Jonny Bairstow at third slip, was the scalp for England’s all-time leading wicket-taker in the third over of the day. In all the hosts lost seven for 97 in the final session as New Zealand’s bowlers stormed back. Joe Root, captain Ben Stokes, Alex Lees and Potts all perished during that mad passage of play. Thefirst day of the first Test of the summer. You wonder if you really are up to it despite the 35 wickets culled for Durhamthat got you through Ben’s door. That moment when the skipper chucks you the ball and says, here you go son, you’re on. Yet the end result was still the same.

England began the Ben Stokes era with a chaotic day of cricket Lord's, with 17 wickets tumbling on a frantic start to their first Test against New Zealand.

Anderson bouncing out both Jamieson and Southee in between meant he and Potts were vying to make the honours board. The 23-year-old from Sunderland certainly offered a point of difference from the big two, even if he operates at a similar pace. Hustling in from the Nursery End, his fifth ball nipped away from Williamson, feathered the edge and offered Ben Foakes his first dismissal at home. Certainly Anderson and Broad hit a rich groove with the new ball, the pair bowling the lengths that Joe Root was still demanding during the final days of his captaincy to vaporise New Zealand’s top order. Zak Crawley had played a princely 43 only to fall to the latest booming drive of his nascent Test career, while Alex Lees dug in for 25. Stokes walked out for the toss alongside Kane Williamson, eschewing the captain’s blazer; instead he chose to wear a Test shirt with the name and cap number of Graham Thorpe on the back, a touching tribute for the team’s former batting coach who remains seriously ill in hospital.

The first ball of the day is bouncer that flies legside for four (bonus) byes. England had reached 75 before the second wicket fell and from them on it was a mini-collapse, which turned into the full blown thing. He gets two with the same shot the next delivery and England have a lead of eight. "A lot of my success is down to my family. He does that and gets a single in the process. Latham goes for a quick single second ball, Stokes grabs the ball and hits the wickets but Young ran well on the call and is safely in. The captain gets a single next ball, and last ball of the over Latham punches through the overs down the hill for four. He edges the first ball, but it falls short of second slip. This is a decent wicket, there aren't snake in the pitch as Boycott used to say, and the modern great gets three the next ball with a decent push through the covers. Potts comes on and his first ball is cut for four by Latham, that was a bit of a loosener. Familiar failings from the England batsmen as ball continues to dominate bat. There are four slips and a backward point as the great Jimmy Anderson comes in to bowl.

James Anderson struck early as England made the perfect start in the second innings of their series opener against New Zealand at Lord's on Friday.

“I see a lot of good stuff there. They had reduced New Zealand to 45 for seven before the World Test champions recovered to 132 all out, with debutant paceman Matthew Potts taking four wickets for just 13 runs in 9.2 overs. The leg-spinner then played one of the best shots of the innings, driving Southee down the ground for four before he was last man out, caught in the slips off Boult. England made it two wickets as Matty Potts dismissed Kane Williamson for the second time in the Test, leaving New Zealand 30-2 after 11 overs. England were eventually dismissed for 141 in reply to New Zealand’s 132, with veteran quicks Tim Southee and Trent Boult polishing off the home side’s tail. James Anderson struck early as England made the perfect start in the second innings of their series opener against New Zealand at Lord’s on Friday.

England can depend on ageless James Anderson but Parkinson is unfortunate that his introduction coincided with a New Zealand fightback.

There would be two more boundaries in the over but Anderson was back in the thick of it, pushing, probing like the warrior he is to try to wrestle back control in a Test match. There is little new to say about a bloke bearing down on 650 Test wickets, save to point out he is one day closer to his 40th birthday at the end of next month. It took a thick edge off the first ball off his final over of the spell to break Anderson’s grip. Though Parkinson might fail a Hollywood screen test, he does not lack for grit and took to this strange environment nervelessly, sending down six overs for 21 to end a session in which New Zealand managed 90 runs for the loss of just one wicket. He would have to wait until Friday morning for the privilege of punching England into the lead with his first runs in Test cricket. Then Jack Leach face planted in front of the pavilion to radically alter the complexion of Parkinson’s weekend.

It let New Zealand back into the game. He also gave Trent Boult three stumps to aim at from over the wicket… I know he didn’t get many again but he’s world-class and it’s an attitude some of England’s frenetic batsmen should take on board. and England's batters can learn from Kane Williamson's calmness at the crease despite his latest failure New Zealand continued to fight back against England at Lord's on Friday to put themselves in a position of strength in the First Test. - England suffered a collapse with the bat late on the opening day at Lord's

Mitchell finished Friday's play in style, driving the last ball of the day, from England debutant Matthew Potts, for four to move to within three runs of a second hundred in 10 career Tests following his unbeaten 102 against Pakistan at Christchurch last year. Mitchell was 97 not out and Blundell 90 not out -- the first two fifties of the match -- with the duo now having equalled New Zealand's record fifth-wicket stand against England, set by Martin Crowe and Shane Thomson at Lord's in 1994. Daryl Mitchell and Tom Blundell were both eyeing coveted hundreds at Lord's after batting New Zealand into a commanding position on Friday's second day of the first Test against England. In a match where bowlers on both sides had previously been on top, the pair's unbroken partnership of 180 took the World Test champions to 236 for four in their second innings at stumps, a lead of 227, after they had come together with New Zealand in trouble at 56 for four.

Mitchell and Blundell end the day on the verge of centuries as England's early momentum crumbles.

This was the first time since 1954 no player had scored a fifty in either side’s first innings at Lord’s and only the third time since 1888. Tom Blundell became the first batter in this match to reach a half-century when he drove Potts through point for four early in the final session. Kane Williamson must be sick of Matt Potts after he was dismissed by him for the second time in 24 hours. Once again it was James Anderson, 40 next month, who got him, finding the edge that flew into the gloves of wicketkeeper Ben Foakes as New Zealand slipped to seven for one. The leg-spinner’s first runs moved England into the lead and he ended up with eight as the hosts took a slim first-innings advantage. It was Anderson who knocked over the firstNew Zealandwicket on day two, just as it had been 24 hours earlier, spearheading a 40-over rout already lost in the mists of time.

Stokes’ introduction raised the run-rate, despite some prodigious reverse swing, and when Parkinson finally got his hands on the ball, New Zealand were 90-4. Mitchell ended the day on 97 not out, three short of a well-deserved century at the home of cricket, with Blundell 90no in an imposing total of 236-4. Potts saw off Latham just before lunch, picking up another thin edge and adding another layer to a highly encouraging first appearance.
