On Day 4 of the first Test between England and New Zealand at the iconic Lord's stadium, Kiwi bowlers bowled out the hosts for just 275 runs. For Blackcaps, fast bowler Tim Southee bagged six wickets for just 43 runs to give his team a 103-run lead in the first innings. Not a single ball could be bowled on Day 3 of NZ vs Eng Test due to rain and bad weather.
England had a very poor start on the fourth day and the team lost the important wicket of skipper Joe Root in the very first over. Root's catch was taken by veteran Ross Taylor off Kyle Jamieson's delivery. However, even after taking a clean catch, Taylor considered it necessary to confirm with the umpire once.

Later when the umpire checked in replays, they did not see any problem with the catch. Cricket fans are praising Taylor for his sportsmanship.
