I would like to think that the way I've operation over the last couple of years is to be that natural leader... Takes the edge and that is a superb take from Bairstow low to his left at slip! Anderson sends one in, Latham plays out to the off side a little wildly and it flies to Bairstow at a good height at slip... A sharp one this time as Conway pushes hard at it and it just about carries about a foot off the ground. Anderson gets the edge of Williamson but it's very soft hands and it lands about a yard or two short of second slip!

England began the Ben Stokes era with a chaotic day of cricket Lord's, with 17 wickets tumbling on a frantic start to their first Test against New Zealand.
