Christchurch, Nov 26:<\/strong> England have handed a debut to uncapped youngster Jacob Bethell as they named their playing XI for the opening Test of the three-match series against New Zealand, starting on Thursday at Hagley Oval.<\/p>\n

Bethell’s inclusion in the XI came on the back of some strong recent form during white-ball series against Australia and West Indies and will bat at No.3 on debut.<\/p>\n

While Bethell is relatively inexperienced against the red ball and has never made a first-class century, the 21-year-old did finish as England’s second leading run-scorer during the 2022 edition of the ICC Men’s Under 19 Cricket World Cup in the West Indies with 205 runs at an average of 34.16.<\/p>\n

Ollie Pope will keep wicket in the absence of Jordan Cox, who fractured his right thumb during practice last weekend in Queenstown, and will bat at six.<\/p>\n

All-rounder Ben Stokes will captain the side, with Chris Woakes, Gus Atkinson and Brydon Carse making up the pace attack and the trio joined by spinner Shoaib Bashir in a strong bowling line-up.<\/p>\n
