I played with Gus at the start of the year and he's was bowling mid-80mph. He must've worked on something because this summer he's bowling 90mph and above consistently.
Tim Seifert is in at three for New Zealand and he gets off the mark with a push into the covers for two.

He looks like he's been taking international wickets for years!

A first international wicket and it's a big one - Devon Conway.
Conway c Livingstone v Atkinson 4 (NZ 6-1)
A wicket in his first over!
Conway tries to flick Atkinson off his legs and only succeeds in finding Liam Livingstone at deep square.
Atkinson looks absolutely unbothered by it - a cool head on his shoulders.
Here comes the debutant Gus Atkinson, replacing Luke Wood in the line-up today.
He's bowling in the 90s with his second ball, Conway inside edges for two.
New Zealand batter Finn Allen speaking earlier on BBC Two: "It's always good fun to play in the UK. I put in a lot of work before The Hundred, it's good to see performances come through.
"Devon Conway and I have spent a bit of time batting together now, in domestic cricket at home too. We know each other's games pretty well and I guess he's a pretty calming influence on me, we keep each other going and have formed a good bond and friendship off the field as well.
"I want to put the opposition on the back foot, something I was working on with Stephen Fleming during The Hundred was improving my method. But I definitely want to be aggressive.
"A lot of exciting cricket coming up. We're coming up against a quality England side, they've got some excellent spinners in the middle overs, I think we've can get on top of those guys it's good practice for India and the World Cup."
Thanks Ffion, this is going to be quite a formidable target for this pair.
It's Sam Curran opening the bowling for England and Allen gets his first run off the third ball of the over, pushing into the leg-side.
Just two more runs follow and that's a very solid start for the home side.
Finn Allen and Devon Conway are in the middle ready to begin their chase of 199, and it's time for me to leave you with Mike Peter to take you through it.
It hasn't been a great night to be a bowler so far.
Tim Southee conceded 48 from his four overs, Ferguson 43 and Ish Sodhi 44 (although he did take two wickets).
Will England's fare a little better? We'll see Gus Atkinson in action shortly...

Jonny can take a lesson from this innings. He only averages 22 opening the batting in T20, he took his time, got the pace of the pitch, he can catch up. No ground is big enough when he's playing like this, he's absolutely brutal, it's either really sweet timing or brute power that gets it to the boundary.
Ebony Rainford-Brent
Former England batter on BBC Two
Brutal hitting, I feel for the bowlers. At the powerplay stage, England were only 40 for 1, and I thought maybe it was going to be a stop start game, did the surface have enough in it, well it had plenty. Harry Brook came in and freed up Jonny Bairstow, when he came in and played a few shots, he showed what was possible.
A partnership of 131 between Harry Brook and Jonny Bairstow propelled England to a formidable total.
The bowlers had no answers.
Stephen Fleming
Former New Zealand captain on BBC Two
The shape of the innings, from nine to 15 overs was so destructive. New Zealand had no answer to the power of Brook and Bairstow.
Buttler and Bairstow scamper a bye from the final ball and that concludes a remarkable innings from England.
Bairstow finishes unbeaten with 86 from 60 balls, having been starved of the strike a bit towards the end, but it was a great knock.
After all the carnage, New Zealand need 199 to win.
Stephen Fleming
Former New Zealand captain on BBC Two
Ferguson came a little bit straighter and give Buttler the length. It's just such a strong swing. Good height, good power.
Jos Buttler puts an end to that!
Launched down the ground for six, hit like a golf swing!
Ferguson starts well.
No boundaries from his first four balls...

There's an alternative Cricket Universe where the England selectors haven't picked Harry Brook in the World Cup squad - everyone laughs at them! As if that would happen here. Oh hang on...
Jasper in Verwood
Very, very good from Adam Milne.
He concedes just four from the penultimate over by nailing his yorkers and ends up with 0-23 - which is quite something in a total of this magnitude.
It'll be Lockie Ferguson with the last.
