Rory Burns hit a gutsy century to help England recover from a collapse on the fourth day of the first Test against New Zealand at Lord’s on Saturday. England was in danger of following-on but Burns’ 132 meant it avoided the embarrassment, although a total of 275 was still 103 adrift of New Zealand’s score of 378 that featured debutant opener Devon Conway’s remarkable 200. The Kiwis were 34 for no loss at the time of going to the press. Veteran paceman Tim Southee led New Zealand’s attack with six for 43 in 25.1 overs to secure yet another place on the Lord’s honours board after his 10-wicket haul in 2013.More Related News
