Sat Nov 30 04:20:00 UTC 2024: ## Williamson’s Heroics Fail to Save New Zealand in England Test
**Mount Maunganui, New Zealand:** Kane Williamson’s impressive batting performance couldn’t prevent New Zealand from teetering towards defeat in the first Test against England. At the close of play on day three, the Kiwis, trailing in the match, had slumped to 6 wickets down in their second innings, managing a meager four-run lead. This precarious position suggests New Zealand will be unable to set England a challenging target.
While Williamson’s innings was a highlight for the home side, England’s Harry Brook’s earlier century significantly impacted the match. Further adding to New Zealand’s woes, spectacular fielding displays by England, including a breathtaking catch by Glenn Phillips, left spectators awestruck. The match remains keenly contested, with a thrilling conclusion expected in the coming days.
