New Zealand vs England 2024 1st Test Live Streaming: When and where to watch NZ vs ENG 1st Test LIVE in India online and on TV
New Zealand will look to continue their winning streak in Test cricket when they take on Ben Stokes-led England team in the first game of the three-match Test series starting at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Thursday. Tom Latham’s side are coming into this series after whitewashing India 3-0 away from home.
Latham confirmed seamer Nathan Smith will make his Test debut against England in the first Test in Christchurch. While the New Zealand skipper failed to divulge the exact playing XI of his side that will take the field into the opening match of the three-game ICC World Test Championship series against England, the New Zealand skipper did reveal Smith will win his first Test cap in the Christchurch Test.
Latham also confirmed that former skipper Kane Williamson will return to the long format from his groin injury for the first Test against the Three Lions. England have handed a debut to uncapped youngster Jacob Bethell as they named their playing XI for the opening Test of the three-match series against New Zealand, starting on Thursday at Hagley Oval.
Bethell’s inclusion in the XI came on the back of some strong recent form during white-ball series against Australia and West Indies and will bat at No.3 on debut. Ollie Pope will keep wicket in the absence of Jordan Cox, who fractured his right thumb during practice last weekend in Queenstown, and will bat at six.
All-rounder Ben Stokes will captain the side, with Chris Woakes, Gus Atkinson and Brydon Carse making up the pace attack and the trio joined by spinner Shoaib Bashir in a strong bowling line-up.
