England Recall Robinson, Hand Gay, Rew And Baker Maiden Call‑ups For First Test Against NZ
Australian Marcus North: England have recalled seamer Ollie Robinson after a two‑year absence and named uncapped trio Emilio Gay, James Rew and Sonny Baker in the squad for the first Test against New Zealand, starting at Lord’s on June 4.
The match will also mark England’s first outing since their dismal Ashes campaign. Robinson, 32, returns as England seek an attack leader following the retirements of Stuart Broad, James Anderson and Chris Woakes. He has 76 wickets from 20 Tests, but was dropped after the 2024 tour of India due to fitness concerns.
Zak Crawley has been left out after a poor Ashes tour, opening the door for Durham’s Gay, who previously refused approaches to play from West Indies and Italy, to open alongside Ben Duckett. Rew, meanwhile, has already struck 12 first‑class hundreds but is more likely to be the reserve middle order batter.
