He\u2019s been very consistent at number three in T20s and shown great form in ODIs when he\u2019s had the chance,\u2019 said England captain Jos Buttler.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/08\/30\/20\/74889725-0-image-a-1_1693424662181.jpg\" height=\"391\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>England pace bowler Brydon Carse claimed an impressive 3-23 on his T20 debut<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/08\/30\/20\/74890337-0-image-a-16_1693425420054.jpg\" height=\"382\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>England&#8217;s Luke Wood was hit for three sixes in the first over but recovered to take 3-37<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/08\/30\/22\/74893915-12462889-image-m-52_1693430437810.jpg\" height=\"525\" width=\"306\"><\/p>\n<p>Malan was in for the third legitimate delivery of the innings after Southee had Jonny Bairstow held low at slip &#8211; surpassing Bangladesh\u2019s Shakib Al Hasan as the most prolific Twenty20 international bowler in the process.<\/p>\n<p>A 57-run stand for the second wicket with Will Jacks got things back on track before the latter succumbed in extraordinary fashion &#8211; picking out deep square leg from a double hit off leg-spinner Ish Sodhi.<\/p>\n<p>Brook soon restored normal service, however, launching Sodhi for consecutive sixes to move into double figures and once again highlighted the riches England possess to not select him in their 15-man, 50-over squad, finishing unbeaten on 43 from 27.<\/p>\n<p>Having been whitewashed 3-0 in Bangladesh earlier this year, this was a first win for Buttler\u2019s team in this format since defeating Pakistan in the World Cup final in Melbourne last November.<\/p>\n<p>Things did not start well, though, after Buttler won the toss and he might have been fearing the worst when Finn Allen blasted New Zealand out of the blocks, crunching three of the innings\u2019 first five balls for six.<\/p>\n<p>But Lancashire left-armer Luke Wood instigated the fightback at the start of the four-match series, returning from that opening over mauling by switching to the Lumley End and inducing a feathered edge from a flat-footed Devon Conway for the initial breakthrough.<\/p>\n<p>The New Zealanders limped out of the power play at 38 for three, shortly after Wood rushed through Tim Seifert\u2019s defence in his next over.<\/p>\n<p>In between those wickets, a delivery from debutant Brydon Carse that nipped back ended Allen\u2019s curious contribution: aside from his trio of early blows, he managed just three off a dozen balls.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/08\/30\/20\/74889747-0-image-a-2_1693424709001.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Dawid Malan made a composed 54 as England cruised to a seven-wicket victory<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/08\/30\/21\/74890801-12462889-image-a-17_1693426150189.jpg\" height=\"434\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Harry Brook struck an unbeaten 43 off 27 balls to take England home at Durham<\/p>\n<p>Carse, who appeared in the last of his nine one-day internationals against South Africa a year ago here in Chester-le-Street, was back on home territory to make his Twenty20 international debut, receiving his cap from Durham team-mate Mark Wood, who joined up with the squad to work on his fitness after being rested since the end of the Ashes last month.<\/p>\n<p>Carse is one of the high-end pace options England are considering as a reserve for that tournament should Jofra Archer not prove his fitness following more elbow surgery, and he touched 90 miles per hour during an opening spell of 2-0-3-1.<\/p>\n<p>With the spin trio of Adil Rashid, Moeen Ali and Livingstone teaming up for combined figures of 9-0-54-3, New Zealand never recovered from a halfway score of 64 for four, failing to make use of either the ground\u2019s long square boundaries &#8211;
