England crumble as New Zealand seamers make merry

Britain got through a lamentable time of play against the new ball in their reaction to New Zealand's most memorable innings all out of 329 as they lost six wickets to hand control to the guests on Day 2 of the Headingley Test on Friday (June 24). The hosts got some margin to finish the New Zealand innings after the mid-day break as Jack Leach added two additional wickets to wrap up with a five-fer. In any case, what went with the same pattern was a shocking presentation of swing bowling from the accomplished New Zealand pace triplet, leaving the hosts reeling at 91 for 6. The parade began as soon as in the opening over. Trent Boult got the new ball to swing and Alex Lees neglected to capitalize on the respite he got only two balls into the innings. An incredible conveyance from the bowler swung late and hit the off stump to boot the opener out. Boult then, at that point, followed it up by crushing the stumps two additional times with conveyances that swung into the right-given Ollie Pope and Zak Crawley. In the event that this triple blow paralyzed the English camp, they were in for more hopelessness as the hotshot was eaten up by Tim Southee. Bowling from wide of the wrinkle, Southee constrained Joe Root to play at a conveyance that he simply figured out how to edge behind as England ended up reeling at 21/4. Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes then, at that point, chose to counter-punch and they excited the group for certain extreme strokes. The ploy was continuously going to be unsafe as Stokes figured out the most difficult way possible against Neil Wagner. Getting a go at long last in the series, Wagner struck in his most memorable over when Stokes descended the track, just to confound one to mid off. Three balls later, Wagner struck again as his fantasy first over brought about England losing their 6th wicket as Ben Foakes. New Zealand might have had another before the break had they settled on a survey against Jamie Overton yet having lost an audit before against similar hitter, the guests would have rather not risked losing one more audit in about a couple of conveyances. With Bairstow likewise getting a respite, England will trust the pair doesn't hit a dead end to the extent that this would be possible in the last meeting. Brief scores: New Zealand 329 (Daryl Mitchell 109, Tom Blundell 55; Jack Leach 5-100) lead England 91/6 (Jonny Bairstow 33*; Trent Boult 3-43, Neil Wagner 2-17) by 238 runs.
