    England have won the opening cricket test against New Zealand in Christchurch comprehensively, by eight wickets

    England have won the opening cricket test against New Zealand in Christchurch comprehensively, by eight wickets


    A post-lunch flurry saw England chase the 104 required in 12.4 overs.

    Any conservative technical formalities were thrust aside as debutant Jacob Bethell with 50, Ben Duckett with 27 and Joe Root with 23 treated the New Zealand bowling with disdain.

    Daryl Mitchell with 84 and Will O'Rourke with five battled for a 45-run 10th wicket, but that was no match for Brydon Carse with figures of 10 for 106 for the match, including six for 42 in the second innings.

    The Black Caps chances of reaching the world championship final now require the services of an Isaac Newton-type mathematician.
