  2. NZ 158-3

    Conway 82, Nicholls 13

    Edged - and just past leg slip by Devon Conway!

    Ollie Robinson trails a delivery down the leg side and Conway chases it and somehow manages to help it past the flying figure of Zak Crawley, throwing himself to his left. To add insult to injury, the ball goes fizzing away for four.

  3. I have so many questions, Ian.

  4. I dismissed an England cricketer...

    Text 81111

    I dismissed Nasser Hussain at age 16 in a county game (Lancs v Essex). Didn't realise how well known he was at that age until Michael Atherton told me in my celebration. Still never as good an ice breaker as my mum being an extra in Monty Python's Life of Brian though.

    Ian, Timperley

  5. NZ 152-3

    It's the first day of the first Test of a huge cricketing summer. Let's leave the over rate discussion for one day, hey?

    Henry Nicholls inside-edges Anderson into his pads, which brings about a yelp from the close fielders.

  6. Get Involved

    Not sure whether anyone has the appetite for a discussion on Test match over-rates at the moment, but based on the day so far we're looking at a finish close to 7 o'clock.

  7. NZ 152-3

    Henry Nicholls hoicks a rising Ollie Robinson delivery away from his nose and down in front of square for an extravagant single. The post tea slumber is starting to hit at Lord's.

  8. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    Now is not the time to get run out, on a belter at Lord's.

  9. Isa Guha
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    Tight! That was close.

  10. NZ 151-3

    Nicholls 11, Conway 77

    Ooh! Henry Nicholls takes a sneaky single and comes perilously close to being run out at the non striker's. Mark Wood picks up the ball at mid-on and hurls it just wide of the stumps. Nicholls offers up an apology to his batting partner after seeing the replay.

  11. Here's James Anderson...

  12. NZ 146-3

    Conway 73, Nicholls 10

    Ollie Robinson steams in to Devon Conway, who settles himself with a whipping leg glance that is well stopped by a tumbling Ollie Pope.

  13. Ollie Robinson will get us going after tea, by the looks of things. He's got 2-25 today after a fine spell either side of lunch.

  15. Get Involved

    George Drake-Knight: Hello @BBCSport How can I listen to #BBCCricket from the USA?

  16. The players are making their way back out to the middle.

  17. Is this chap at Lord's reading the weekend paper? It's Wednesday.

  18. It's been a good day for Black Caps debutant Devon Conway.

  19. I dismissed two England cricketers

    #bbccricket

    I got two England captains out in one over of a charity match with long hops - Chris Cowdrey and Mark Butcher. Combined matches as captain of England: two. Surely a record of some sort?

  20. Thank you, Matthew Henry.

    Get comfy. This could be a long evening session.
