In the reply to New Zealand’s 523, England were bolstered by a splendid century from their captain Alastair Cook, who remained unbeaten on 153 to power the hosts to a commanding 429 for six in their second essay. England had extended their second innings lead to 295 by the end of the play on the fourth day at Lord’s. READ: Alastair Cook finds his lost mojo
While Cook once again proved that he is in form, the left-handed lower middle order batsman Ben Stokes ensured that England end the day on top with a commanding lead. Stokes slammed a quickfire century — 102 off just 92 balls, with the help of 15 boundaries and three sixes to achieve his feat. READ: England vs New Zealand, 1st Test at Lord’s: What lies ahead?
However, it was unfortunate for Joe Root to have missed out on a deserving century as he pulled a short delivery straight to the third man, off Matt Henry when he was batting on 84. Root was splendid as ever during his innings, and it certainly provided solidity and impetus to England, who were rocked early on the fourth day by the tourists.
