"New Zealand named a 15-man squad on Monday but injured batsman Henry Nicholls and pace spearhead Trent Boult, who played in the Indian Premier League final at the weekend, are unlikely to feature at Lord's.

Winners of the World Test Championship last year, New Zealand's title defence is on shaky ground after tying home series against South Africa and Bangladesh.

They are also a different line-up from the side that beat England 1-0 last year, with senior batsman Ross Taylor and wicketkeeper BJ Watling having retired."

Oh dear NZ 5/36

Yes mate. I saw that and thought the Black Caps had been sent in.

Dare I say it but James Anderson took out both openers. The Caps were 2/2.

Ando has now bowled 6 maidens on the trot. Has 2/4 from 7 overs.

Matthew Potts has 3/6 from 7 overs.

NZ 6/36.
