Gay gone for 8, good delivery and catch to be fair to him.

16-1

Looking like a traditional catastrophic Lord's toss to lose.

WTF was Bethell doing playing that shot? The ball is nipping around and he needed to play sensibly. This new version of England is showing a fair few similarities to the last one, it’s bloody frustrating following England in test cricket

What are the bright green lines painted to the side of leg stump (for a right-hander) each end?

[PaulWinch again]

Not looking too good right now.

Ah Ive missed this

Ah Ive missed this 

Haha, know what you mean. I was quite looking forward to this for some daft reason.

Good to see England showing consistency. They have seamlessly picked up where they left off in Australia.

[Exeter 77]

Only just had chance to check the score. 118 for 8!!!!!!

Broad reckons they should declare and get at them as soon as they're allowed on. I don't think they will, though I can see his reasoning.

[Bernie]

Well they're going to get a crack at them now anyway, saves the effort of declaring...
Need early wickets badly.

[PaulWinch again]

Good to have Robinson back.

[cdbearsfan]

Should have declared, Kiwis would be all out by now ☹️

[Meanwood Villa]

Turned around a bit

[Villan For Life]

There’s a chance that this could be a 2 day test match.
