Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 137/2, England 303: WICKET - Devon Conway c Crawley b Broad 80. Huge wicket that. No century for Conway. Length ball on the leg stump, Conway flicks and finds the man at deep backward square leg. Kind of soft way to go after a terrific knock.

20:17 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 130/1, England 303: That's Tea and NZ are 126/1. That was the most one-sided session of the match. Both the batters well set and ready to go for big runs. NZ are riding high thanks to Devon Conway, who is looking like a rock, he is unmovable and unbothered; looks set to dig his heels in. Meanwhile is well assisted by Will Youbng. He has been at the crease for a long time and is eating up balls. That's a nice strategy for NZ who are buying their time and deflate this England seam attack. They are the team who is on the move in the post Lunch session.

20:00 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 121/1, England 303:  Conway is going after Wood. Remeber how Wood plotted his downfall at Lord's in both the innings. Conway pulls and pulls hard. The Tea is just around the corner and NZ want to head into the dressing room with the momentum.

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 95/1, England 303: In some other news, Rahul Dravid will be coaching Shikhar Dhawan led Indian cricket team when they tour Sri Lanka.

Dravid will be head coach of a Shikhar Dhawan-led Indian team that will tour Sri Lanka for a white-ball series next month. He doesn’t travel with the A and U-19 squads any more but it was he who made sure all the squad members played on tours.

“I tell them upfront, if you come on an A tour with me, you will not leave here without playing a game. I’ve had that personal experience myself as a kid: going on an A tour and not getting an opportunity to play is terrible," Dravid ESPNcricinfo’s “The Cricket Monthly".

Fifty up for Conway.

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 58/1, England 303: What Shakib did on the field has shocked many in the cricket world. Here's more from the incident: “Dear fans and followers, I am extremely sorry for losing my temper and ruining the match for everyone and especially those who are watching from home. An experienced player like me should not have reacted that way but sometimes against all odds it happens unfortunately. I apologise to the teams, management, tournament officials and organizing committee for this human error. Hopefully, I won’t be repeating this again in the future. Thanks and love you all," he wrote on Facebook.

18:19 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 52/1, England 303: We are back after Lunch and Conway has got a boundary. Meanwhile Bangladesh allrounder Shakib Al Hasan apologised for losing his temper and ‘ruining the match’ after he kicked, uprooted and threw the stumps upon arguing with an umpire during a Dhaka Premier Division Twenty20 Cricket League on Friday. Shakib lost his temper on two separate occasions in the match between Mohammedan Sporting Club and Abahani Limited; first when he was denied an lbw against Mushfiqur Rahim, and then when the umpires stopped play due to rain in the sixth over.

17:46 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 43/1, England 303. LUNCH: New Zealand in a pretty decent position despite losing Tom Latham early. Devon Conway, who made 200 on debut, is batting well along with Will Young. Conway survived an appeal for a catch thanks to inconclusive replays, and that could turn to be a turning point.

17:16 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 32/1, England 303. Almost another wicket for Stuart Broad as he gets Devon Conway's outside edge to the slip cordon. But did the ball carry? Soft signal was not out, and replays were inconclusive to overturn. So on field call stays, and Conway survives. England players unhappy.

17:00 (IST)

That's the wicket

16:55 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 15/1, England 303. WICKET - Tom Latham lbw Stuart Broad 6. Typical Broad wicket from around the stumps. Pins Latham in the stumps, nips back in and crashes into the pad. Just the kind of strike England wanted early.

16:46 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: NZ 13/0, England 303. A steady start from Tom Latham and Devon Conway so far. James Anderson and Stuart Broad with the ball. Anderson in his 162nd match.

16:21 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: England 303 All Out. Trent Boult picks up his fourth wicket as England are bowled out. James Anderson the last man to fall. Dan Lawrence made a fighting 81 but has run out of partners. Was on his way to a century, but that's not to be now. A good effort from him though to lift England beyond 300. With the help of the tail.

16:04 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 2: England 289 for 9. New Zealand have struck twice in the morning already. Trent Boult and Matt Henry with a wicket each. Dan Lawrence is still there though, guiding England towards 300. Henry and Boult have three wickets each.

15:28 (IST)

Live score England vs New Zealand: We are just moments away from the start of the proceedings. Dan Lawrence has batted exceptionally well for England and batting on 67 with Mark Wood, who is playing on 16. They would like to stretch their stay in the wicket and frustrate the opposition. 

15:25 (IST)

Hello and welcome to day 2 of the first Test between England and New Zealand. Both teams shared the honours on day one with hosts scoring 258/7, with Rory Burns top-scoring with 81. Now the Kiwis would be looking to dismiss them under 300. Let's find out what holds in store for us. 

ENG vs NZ 2021 Live Score, 2nd Test, Day 2: Stuart Broad Gets Devon Conway After Tea

ENG vs NZ 2021 Live Cricket Score, 2nd Test, Day 2 Today’s Match at Edgbaston, Birmingham:  WICKET – Devon Conway c Crawley b Broad 80. Huge wicket that. No century for Conway. Length ball on the leg stump, Conway flicks and finds the man at deep backward square leg. Kind of soft way to go after a terrific knock. He had made a double century on debut and looked good for a century here, but that’s not to be.

Matt Henry, Trent Boult and Ajaz Patel struck twice each while Rory Burns and Dan Lawrence made fighting half-centuries as New Zealand restricted England on the first day of the second Test at Edgbaston. At stumps, England were 258 for 7 having opted to bat first. Burns, the opener, made 81 while Lawrence was unbeaten on 67 with Mark Wood (16*). England got a good start and were 72-0 at lunch, but lost three wickets for 13 runs shortly after as they slumped to 85-3, with captain Joe Root out for just four. But opener Rory Burns, fresh from his hundred in the drawn first Test at Lord’s last week, kept them going even as NZ struck at the other end.

Henry, in for the veteran Tim Southee — one of three New Zealand players rested ahead of next week’s inaugural World Test Championship final against India at Southampton — started the slump. Dom Sibley tried to leave a Henry away-swinger but was caught behind for 35. England’s 72-1 became 73-2 when Zak Crawley’s miserable run continued with a duck, the batsman caught in the slips after a loose shot off left-arm paceman Neil Wagner — the only surviving member of New Zealand’s attack from Lord’s. It was Crawley’s ninth single-figure score in 11 Test innings since his stunning 267 against Pakistan last year. Henry then captured the prize wicket of key batsman Root, caught behind off an excellent outswinger that moved late.

England went to tea at 152 for 4 but Trent Boult struck after the break, having Burns and James Bracey 0 (1) caught behind the stumps. Ajaz Patel made 20 before being lbw to Ajaz Patel. Lawrence fought on at one end and went past his half-century, while Mark Wood gave him company. The duo added an unbroken 36 runs when stumps were drawn. Root had won the toss and batted despite overcast conditions that appeared to favour his attack, once again without a specialist spinner. New Zealand had to make three injury-enforced changes, with captain and key batsman Kane Williamson (elbow), spinner Mitchell Santner (cut finger) and BJ Watling (sore back) all missing from the side. Their places were taken by Will Young, Ajaz Patel and Tom Blundell respectively, with Tom Latham captaining the team. Meanwhile, James Anderson’s 162nd appearance saw him become England’s most-capped Test player, breaking the record he had shared with retired former captain Alastair Cook. England made one change, with fast bowler Olly Stone replacing Ollie Robinson who, following a successful on-field Test debut at Lord’s, was suspended from international cricket after the emergence of historic racist and sexist Twitter posts.
