International Look Back: Williamson And Taylor Put England To The Sword

Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor scored twin centuries as New Zealand defeated England at The Ageas Bowl back in 2015

England visit The Ageas Bowl twice in 2023 - with England Women facing Australia in an Ashes ODI in July and England Men facing New Zealand in an ODI of their own in September - and tickets for both fixtures went on sale recently.

To mark the on-sale, we're looking back at impressive individual performances in international fixtures at The Ageas Bowl.


New Zealand are in town in 2023 to play England. 

Brilliant centuries from Kane Williamson (118) and Ross Taylor (110) saw New Zealand secure a convincing three wicket victory on what was a record-breaking day at the The Ageas Bowl.

England won the toss and chose to bat first. Fifties from Eoin Morgan (71), Ben Stokes (68) and Joe Root (54) entertained the sell-out crowd as England posted a competitive 302 before being bowled out in the 46th over.

 New Zealand faltered early as David Willey (3-69), playing in his second ODI, trapped Martin Guptill (2) LBW.

Williamson and Taylor made things difficult for the hosts as they built a formidable partnership.

Williamson reached his half-century at a rate of less than a run a ball and Taylor soon followed as the hundred partnership between the two was reached in just 84 balls.

Despite England’s bowlers toiling away both batsman continued at a canter and Williamson brought up his century before Taylor again emulated his partners efforts with a well-made century of his own, as the two shared a mammoth partnership of 206, the highest third-wicket partnership at The Ageas Bowl.

Although a flurry of late wickets from England, the away-side snuck home to bring an enthralling day of international cricket at The Ageas Bowl to a close. 

Watch the highlights below.
