AUCKLAND (Reuters) - New Zealand batsman Ross Taylor has been confirmed fit to take his place in the side for the first test against England, captain Kane Williamson said on Wednesday.

Taylor had been questionable for the match, which starts on Thursday, after sustaining a thigh injury that saw him skip the third and fifth matches in the one-day series against England.
