Watch: New Zealand Batter Tom Blundell's Unfortunate Dismissal After Failing To Take DRS During 3rd Test vs England

Daryl Mitchell and Tom Blundell came to New Zealand's rescue in the ongoing third Test against England at Headingley in Leeds. With New Zealand reeling at 123 for five on Day 1, the pair added 120 runs for the sixth wicket before Blundell was dismissed in one of the most unfortunate ways on Day 2. England pacer Matthew Potts bowled a full-length delivery which nipped back in after pitching, striking Blundell on his left leg. While the umpire raised his finger straightaway, Blundell did not get the chance to review the decision as the DRS was down at the venue.

England vs New Zealand 3rd Test, Day 1 Live Score Updates: Stuart Broad Removes Tom Latham To Give England Early Breakthrough

England vs New Zealand, 3rd Test Day 1 Live Updates: Stuart Broad struck early for England as Tom Latham was sent packing for a duck in the third Test against New Zealand. New Zealand recalled Neil Wagner to their side as captain Kane Williamson won the toss and elected to bat at Headingley on Thursday. World Test champions New Zealand were looking to salvage some pride at 2-0 down in a three-match series. Star batter Williamson returned to the team after missing the five-wicket defeat in the second Test at Trent Bridge due to a bout of Covid-19, with left-arm seamer Wagner given his first game of the series after towering paceman Kyle Jamieson suffered a tour-ending back injury in Nottingham. Matt Henry dropped out of the side, with Michael Bracewell -- who made his debut at Trent Bridge -- preferred ahead of specialist spinner Ajaz Patel. England had already made one, enforced, change to their side with Surrey fast bowler Jamie Overton given a Test debut in place of James Anderson after England's all-time leading Test wicket-taker was ruled out with an ankle injury. Under their new leadership duo of captain Ben Stokes and red-ball coach Brendon McCullum, the former New Zealand captain, England were looking to complete a first home clean sweep in a series of more than two matches since defeating India 4-0 in 2011.
