England vs New Zealand 1st ODI LIVE
The New Zealand bowling wasn't at its best, they were poor with the old ball but in the middle overs did decently well. Rachin Ravindra was good but the others were good in parts. Their batters face a stiff task now but they have done well chasing in the series so far. Can they chase this down or will it be defended? Stay tuned.
England have posted a strong total on the board on a surface which is gripping a touch. The start was really good for them thanks to Malan but once he fell, they lost three in no time. Then there was a rebuilding phase between Stokes and Buttler before the former fell after setting the platform for the big hitters. Liam Livingstone did not disappoint then but Buttler and him fell in quick succession. The tail though ensured they end close to 300.
