The Three Lions were bowled out for a meager 58 runs- their 6th lowest total in tests – as the Kiwis dominated the first day of the first test.

Playing their first Test since losing the Ashes 4-0 in Australia, England slipped to 27-9 before being dismissed in 20.4 overs at Eden Park, Auckland.

Trent Boult took 6-32 and Tim Southee 4-25 as five batsmen made ducks, equalling England’s record.

Kane Williamson’s 91 not out helped the hosts to 175-3 – a lead of 117 – after Stuart Broad claimed his 400th wicket.
