The opening Test of the three-match series between Ben Stokes-led England and Tom Latham’s New Zealand will begin on Thursday, November 28 at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch.
In the opening edition of the three-match Test series, which begins at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Thursday, New Zealand will try to extend their winning streak in Test cricket against the England squad captained by Ben Stokes. Tom Latham’s team enters this series having thrashed India 3-0 on the road.
Latham revealed that Nathan Smith, a seamer, will play his maiden Test match against England in Christchurch. Smith will receive his maiden Test cap in the Christchurch Test, the New Zealand captain said, although he did not reveal the precise starting lineup for his team going into the first game of the three-game ICC World Test Championship series against England.
In addition, Latham announced that Kane Williamson, the previous captain, will play in the first Test match against the Three Lions after recovering from a groin injury. When England announced their playing XI for the first Test of the three-match series against New Zealand, which begins on Thursday at Hagley Oval, they gave uncapped young player Jacob Bethell his first appearance.
Following some impressive recent performance in white-ball series against Australia and the West Indies, Bethell was added to the starting lineup. He will bat at number three on his debut. Jordan Cox broke his right thumb during practice last weekend in Queenstown, so Ollie Pope will bat at six and maintain wicket.
