New Zealand v England cricket 2023 TV coverage: How to watch Test series
Your complete guide on how to watch New Zealand v England as part of a big year of cricket, featuring TV schedule, times, radio details and more.
Ben Stokes will hope to record another series victory over New Zealand as England Test captain when his team take to the field in Wellington today.
A typically aggressive England won the first Test by 267 runs after declaring on 325/9 in their opening innings. The declaration saw England take a hefty bite out of New Zealand's top order with a new ball under the lights and they wrapped up the game in four days.
Harry Brook recorded 89 and 51 from 81 and 41 balls respectively to continue his dazzling form which looks set to cement his place in the England team for months and years to come.
Ben Duckett continued to stake his claim to be part of the opening partnership going forward with 84 and 25 to set the tone in each innings, while Joe Root and Ben Foakes recorded half-centuries and Ollie Pope finished one run short on 49.
Brendon McCullum and Stokes have opted for an unchanged line-up for the second Test, with Stuart Broad and James Anderson in the fold among the bowling attack after taking 12 wickets between them in the first Test.
