Big-Hitting England Open Up 256-Run First Test Lead Over New Zealand

By AFP News February 27, 2023 • 22:59 PM View: 756

England's batsmen plundered 158 runs but lost four wickets in a breakneck session on Saturday that leaves the first Test still finely poised at Mount Maunganui.

Joe Root (57) and Harry Brook (54) were dismissed soon after compiling rapid half-centuries as the tourists raced to 237-6 in their second innings at tea, opening up a 256-run lead in the day-night encounter at the Bay Oval.
