Nasser Hussain Rues England's Batting Fragility Despite Ben Stokes' 'Impressive' Captaincy

By IANS News June 03, 2022 • 14:32 PM View: 1052

The captaincy of Ben Stokes on day one of the first Test between England and New Zealand at Lord's impressed Nasser Hussain. But at the same time, the former England captain was left to rue the side's familiar batting fragility, which left them reeling at 116/7 at stumps after bowling out New Zealand for just 132.

The start of Stokes-Brendon McCullum era as captain and head coach of England was fantastic as debutant pacer Matthew Potts took 4/13 in 9.2 overs while veteran pacer James Anderson too finished with four wickets and Stuart Broad as well as Stokes picking one wicket each to bowl out New Zealand for 132.
