Key events Show key events onlyPlease turn on JavaScript to use this featureOur very own Tanya Aldred is in Southport where Lancashire's Jimmy Anderson and new Test call up – Notts' Dillon Pennington are playing against each other. Worth keeping an eye on that one – a handing of the torch of sorts.

We've got five minutes before play gets underway in Worcester. Just enough time to catch up with the movings and shakings announced in the men's first Test squad of the summer:

Teams:

England: Tammy Beaumont, Maia Bouchier, Heather Knight (c), Nat Sciver-Brunt, Danni Wyatt, Amy Jones (wk), Alice Capsey, Charlie Dean, Sophie Ecclestone, Kate Cross, Lauren Filer

New Zealand: Suzie Bates, Georgia Plimmer, Amelia Kerr, Sophie Devine (capt), Maddy Green, Brooke Halliday, Lauren Down, Isabella Gaze (wk), Jess Kerr, Molly Penfold, Fran Jones

England have gone for a more seamer based attack than at Durham – Kate Cross and Alice Capsey come in for Lauren Bell and Sarah Glenn.

For New Zealand – Lauren Down comes in for Hannah Rowe.

Share Updated at 05.49 Heather Knight calls correctly and sticks them in, she seems steely but confident.

"There might be a little bit in it (the pitch), a little bit of softness, little bit of live grass,"

"We're really pleased with how ruthless and dominant we were (in Durham)... hopefully we can do the same again."

Sophie Devine admits she would have had a bowl first too. Her side neat to step it up a notch or three today in Worcester.

"One game doesn't define us, we've done a lot of hard work and still have a lot of confidence in what we're doing"

Teams incoming – a few changes for each side...

Share Updated at 05.41 EDT Preamble James Wallace Hello, good morning and welcome to the OBO of England v New Zealand from the dreamy spires of Worcester. The White Ferns took one hell of a pasting on Thursday from an England side who delivered emphatically on their Russell Crowe* as Maximus in Gladiator 'Inspire and Entertain' mantra.

Heather Knight's side ran through New Zealand's batting card like a hot knife through blancmange in Durham. Bowling them out for 156 and then making short work of the chase – Tammy Beaumont and Maia Bouchier each blitzing rapid fifties to knock off the meagre total at a canter. Beaumont batted through unbeaten, finishing on 76* as England ran out winners by 9 wickets with a lot of overs unused.

Can Sophie Devine's side get back into the series? We'll find out in a little over half an hour. I'll be back to bring you news of the teams and the toss. Please do whang a missive into the OBO mailbag if you are tuning in.

*I saw the big fella was getting his warble on at Glastonbury. Are you not entertained? Well, sort of. Three stars, apparently.
