Wood strikes... wait. No. Surely not a no-ball!

"Having been a serene start, this is now becoming more aggressive. With 15 minutes to go before lunch, this could be a tremendous session for New Zealand."

No Stokes but a return for Anderson at the opposite end. he makes a poor start, though, with a loose short ball that Guptill cracks aerially over cover for four. As anyone who watched the Kiwis in the World Cup will testify, Guppers is not a man to let such dross go by unpunished. Anderson has greater success in tying down left-hander Latham. Still no breakthrough for the home side, though. As it stands, lunch will taste a lot better for the tourists.

Richie Macca: I have to say, Mark Wood's run-up seems quite old fashioned. Wouldn't look out of place in the bodyline era.

Merlyn: Wood immediately blowing a far better length and line. Well done. Get Stokes on.

"It's chilly at HQ - you don't want to be sitting outside without a jacket. In front of me, a chap pops the cork of something fizzy and shares with four mates. The illusion of poshness is shattered when he leans forward to reveal a builder's bum."

It is a cruel school, Test cricket. Wood veers slightly too straight and Guptill on-drives past mid-on for four. Quality shot. Wood tweaks the line slightly and fares better. I like Wood, he reminds of the kind of grafting first-changer who eats through batsmen in club cricket. A higher-quality version, obviously.

England wicketkeeper Matt Prior: I know it's a very early shout having bowled just 1 over but I really like the look of @MAWood33.

Former England seamer Alex Tudor: Not seen much of this young man Wood...but like what I see #pace.

Broad is finding a nice line. Another one beats Latham, this time between bat and wicket. The batsman hits back, though, by flicking one off middle through mid-wicket for four. Some acrobatic work from Root at third slip prevents another boundary as Broad drops one short later in the over. I'm sure Alastair Cook will be pondering the introduction of Ben Stokes in the near future. The tourists look a bit too comfortable.

"That lbw appeal was a good indication that Wood is a bit skiddy, because Guptill was through the stroke. He plays with his shoulder round, very chest-on defending."

"For your first over in Test cricket, you'd be more than happy with that."

In comes Mark Wood for his first over in Test cricket. He has an unusual approach to the crease. From a standing start he leaves the handbrake on and floors it before unleashing himself and bounding to the wicket to propel the ball onwards. He almost starts with a wicket with a skiddy one that beats Guptill's stroke and slams into the pad, provoking huge appeals. Replays show it was a touch high. Umpire's call, though, which is not out.

Steven Gyford: Adil - 21*.

Matthew Shuttleworth: The Heavy Rollers - Leg Bye Baby, Baby Leg Bye.

As we've had quite a bit of music chat this morning, Tom Latham fits very much into the boyband camp of modern cricketers. Him and Joe Root wouldn't look out of place in One Direction. Stuart Broad is probably edging more towards Backstreet Boys elder-statesman territory now. He still has plenty in the tank, though, as he shows with an outswinger that beats Latham's outside edge. Buttler slaps his gloves together like a couple of cymbals and spills it, but Broad's point is made.

Anderson errs with a ball on leg stump that Guptill gets across and flicks away to the fine leg boundary. Adam Lyth almost comes a cropper later in the over with a slip that sends him thumping to the turf while stopping a ball. He gets up quickly, though. Pride bruised, not body.

"If Broad's knees are up when he's running in, that's a good sign. They are at the moment, he looks like he means it. He's bowling with reasonable pace, but in these conditions, it's about getting the length right and getting the ball to swing."

Charlie Rhodes: Broad looking dangerous, Jimmy not yet found his length...I'd give Wood a go whilst the ball is still swinging.

Hillel: This is very negative captaincy. With Broad/Anderson doing so little, Cook should bring on Stokes/Wood whilst the ball is new.

The white noise at Lord's is unlike any other ground. There is a civility to it that is rarely found at the likes of Headingley. And not a beer snake in sight. Saying that, it is only about 25 past 12. There is time yet. There is also plenty of time yet for this game to swing in any direction. Broad thinks he has England on the board with an lbw shout against Latham that has the opener on the back foot, but the umpire is firm in his rebuttal. Pitching outside leg? Going over? All of the above, probably.

Mike Wooldridge: Blazer Squad: Square Cut.

Tom Barter: The Fine Legs - Throw your bat in anger.

The strategy is simple for Anderson to Latham. Send a few away to set him up and then dart one back in. Jimmy thinks he might have his man with an example of the latter delivery, but the batsman gets willow on it to steer to leg before his pad is struck. England's first wicket fell when they were on 17, sparking that initial collapse. England would dearly love a breakthrough now while this new ball still has some shine to it.
