Stuart Broad says that England will be looking to take advantage of home conditions against New Zealand in the first Test at Lord's.

Stuart Broad has said that England's bowlers will be getting "back to basics" in the first Test against New Zealand at Lord's.

The Three Lions struggled to a draw in a three-match series against the Kiwis earlier in the year, but the 26-year-old seamer hopes that home conditions will prove a decisive factor this time around.

"I think from a bowling point of view, the first Test of the summer, English conditions, whoever you're bowling at you want to just be testing their defence," Broad told Sky Sports News.

"As a team we want to get back to basics, challenge the defence of each New Zealand batsman - and I hope you'll see that this week."

The first Test gets underway on Thursday.
