England stage mini fightback after draining first day at Trent Bridge

England staged a mini fightback deep into an otherwise demoralising, draining first day of the series deciding third Test against New Zealand at a scorching Trent Bridge.

Tom Latham (151) and Devon Conway (157) had seemingly batted England into submission with a record 317-run opening partnership against their hosts, only for four wickets to fall in little more than an hour to see the Black Caps reduced to 361-4 by stumps.

Ben Stokes, back as captain after he and Gus Atkinson served a one-match suspension, provided the breakthrough as Latham - dropped on 129 by Jamie Smith - was this time snapped up by the wicketkeeper, while Conway followed his partner back to the pavilion an over later as he perished in the deep off Joe Root (1-7).

Atkinson (1-62) and Jofra Archer (1-53) then took two wickets in two balls to end the day's play as Rachin Ravindra (7) perished to a top-edged hack across the line and Henry Nicholls (36) nicked off.
