Liam Livingstone’s three mega sixes off one over from Kyle Jamieson provided the fireworks in an otherwise underwhelming England performance in the first one-day international against New Zealand at Cardiff on Friday – a crushing eight-wicket defeat with 26 balls to spare.
It was a good run-out for Livingstone, whose past year has been dogged by injury after damaging his ankle falling down a curb “trying to dodge a puddle” last August and then his right knee on Test debut in Rawalpindi.
