Summary
Ollie Robinson is firing on all cylinders in England’s first Test against New Zealand, claiming two crucial wickets — including Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell lbw — as rain keeps interrupting play on day three. New Zealand is now 55 for five, needing 254 to win, while Robinson’s relentless spell has put immense pressure on the visitors. Despite chaotic weather that wiped out morning sessions and delayed afternoon play, Robinson kept England in control, picking up his sixth and seventh wickets. The pitch has drawn criticism from former players, but Robinson is exploiting every opportunity — even a close lbw call stood firm after review. With lunch oddly timed and play resuming around 1 PM only to be halted again, the match has become a rollercoaster of weather, strategy, and patience — all while Robinson continues to dominate.
