Ben Duckett - 5

Opened with promise across both innings but fell to an excellent delivery in the first while feeling annoyed at a loose stroke after reaching 33 during the second outing.

Emilio Gay - 7

Impressed on debut with a gifted start to his Test career. The left-hander was undone by a fine ball initially yet displayed skill and determination to top-score with 57 and help England build a solid platform.

Jacob Bethell - 4

Showed improved focus in the second innings after a poor first-day dismissal yet could do nothing when a short ball from Matt Henry skidded low to disturb his off stump.

Joe Root - 3

A rare low point with two single-figure scores in one Test for England's top batter. Both dismissals came from quality deliveries though most struggled similarly on this surface.

Harry Brook - 7

Embraced the Bazball approach with an aggressive half-century that lifted England beyond 100 in the opening innings while capitalizing on two dropped chances.

Jamie Smith - 6

Bounced back from an early poor leave that cost his off stump by stabilizing the second innings with a fluent 39 after England lost four quick wickets. Remained sharp with the gloves.

Ben Stokes - 4

A subdued outing for the captain. A brilliant catch from Kane Williamson removed him in the first innings while he was beaten by a straight delivery second time around. Bowled just seven overs yet provided a key breakthrough to finish New Zealand's resistance.

Gus Atkinson - 8

England's specialist at Lord's. Claimed tidy figures of 2-9 in the first innings and then 5-30 in the second for his fourth five-wicket haul in three Tests here. His 26 wickets at 9.5 average at this venue stands out.

Ollie Robinson - 8

Marked his return after more than two years with a triple-wicket maiden in his opening over. Comebacks rarely improve on that. The surface suited him perfectly and his seven wickets underlined his readiness to spearhead the attack though sterner tests await.

Josh Tongue - 7

One of three frontline seamers and another strong performance. He keeps removing batters by hitting the stumps regularly and appears the most settled bowler for the longer term.

Shoaib Bashir - 5

Returned to the side yet sent down as many deliveries as during the Ashes - none. He did contribute a Test-best 14 with the bat in a handy last-wicket partnership during the first innings.

Tom Latham - 3

Managed just three runs across the match but his second-innings dismissal stood out. A loose drive gifted England a wicket on a surface that already favored the bowlers heavily.

Devon Conway - 4

An umpire's call went against him when Robinson struck early yet he fought to 41 in the second innings to offer some hope. Two dropped catches across both innings affected his rating.

Kane Williamson - 3

A fine player whose record in England remains modest and this match did little to improve it. A duck followed by 18 left two Tests to lift his numbers on what may be his final tour here.

Rachin Ravindra - 2

A difficult Test for the left-hander. A golden duck in the first innings plus two simple drops and a cheap dismissal second time around summed up his struggles.

Daryl Mitchell - 4

Previously dominant against England he helped the hosts with a misjudged leave on day one and then fell lbw for zero between rain breaks later in the match.

Tom Blundell - 3

Handled the gloves steadily but scored only eight runs in two innings and was twice dismissed by Tongue though both dismissals offered little chance of survival.

Glenn Phillips - 7

Tallied 34 and an unbeaten 44 which counted as substantial totals here. He tried to pressure England's bowlers especially during the chase but too many wickets fell around him.

Nathan Smith - 8

The least expected of New Zealand's seamers before the match he finished with nine wickets including 6-70 in England's second innings by maintaining a tight line and swinging the ball both ways.

Kyle Jamieson - 8

Returning after injury the tall seamer earned a place on the honors board with a five-for in the first innings while useful lower-order batting helped New Zealand stay close on first-innings totals.

Will O'Rourke - 7

Similar height to Jamieson yet quicker by around 10mph he proved awkward and may feel four wickets under-represented his impact after several hostile spells.

Matt Henry - 5

Back spasms restricted him to four overs in the first innings and left him below full fitness for 11 overs in the second. Restoring him to peak condition ahead of the next Test remains vital.
