Right! The first game is done and dusted in 190 minutes. No time wasting. England have also wasted no time in adjusting to the conditions and have won convincingly, without this being their best squad. New Zealand do not have much time for a turnaround as the second T20I starts on Sunday, 3rd November, 2019 at 2 pm local (0100 GMT). Join us then. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
Victorious England captain, Eoin Morgan, hits the nail on the head. Says that the game was more or less won or lost in the first innings itself, as he feels that they were chasing a total 20 below par on a surface which was two-paced. Praises his bowlers and specially the debutants, for holding their nerves. Is enjoying England's welcome to New Zealand's shores. On fielding three debutants, Morgan says that the management needs time to get a settled 15 into the World Cup in October and the resting of 7 guys is a plan in that direction. Admits that all new players will not get a chance to go to Australia but believes that at least the selectors get some options. Is happy to be 1-0 up and is looking forward to the next match in Wellington.
New Zealand's captain for the first three T20Is, Tim Southee, admits that it is a tough start for the series. Praises England but feels that New Zealand were off in all three departments. Adds that a couple of early wickets could have put pressure on the England batters but it never happened. With the bat, he reckons that they could have got a few runs more.
JAMES VINCE HAS BEEN AWARDED THE MAN OF THE MATCH (Sigh... batsman's game). Praises his bowlers for setting up the win, as the total was not a huge one to chase. On the pitch, feels that it was a good one to bat upon, especially after getting set. Lauds captain Morgan for taking his side home.
A difficult match for the Kiwi bowlers. Their batsmen could not quite get a big total and they simply could not find anything on the surface to keep England quiet. And this is a side without Jason Roy, Jos Buttler, Ben Stokes, Alex Hales and Joe Root. D. E. P. T. H. Who is your Man Of The Match? Chris Jordan? Or James Vince? Please stayed tuned for the presentation...
A very important match for James Vince. He has this habit to getting in, feeling good, making the team look nice and then throw it away. He did that again in this game, getting to 59 and making the cardinal sin of not staying till the end. But because the job was not that difficult, he got away with it.
A comfortable win for England in the end. They never looked to be in trouble and it was a matter of one good partnership and one set batsman staying deep. The first two stands set the tone and then the 54-run stand between Vince and Morgan sealed the deal.

Tim Southee To Eoin Morgan
SIX! ENGLAND WIN BY 7 WICKETS! What a batting effort form the the English team. Southee goes short and on middle, Morgan pulls it handsomely. The ball sails up and over the mid-wicket fence for a maximum. The fielder there is a mere spectator.

OUT! CAUGHT! Another wicket and the man to take is Guptill. Santner goes short and Vince pulls it through mid-wicket. But as he failed to get under the ball which means that he fails to get the timing and the distance. Guptill stationed there in the deep this time takes an easiest of the grab.

OUT! CAUGHT! Brilliant stuff in the field from Martin Guptill! What a catch in the deep by the Kiwi stalwart there. Santner goes flatter and wide outside off, Bairstow has to go and fetch his pull from wide outside off. But Jonny fails to get it from the middle of the bat. Finally he could manage a drag pull which goes to deep mid-wicket where Martin Guptill takes a good tumbling grab. So Bairstow departs and England lose their second one.

Lockie Ferguson To Dawid Malan
Around middle and leg, Malan plays that from the crease, back to the bowler. Superb from Southee in the opener, well backed up by Lockie here.

Lockie Ferguson To Dawid Malan
That stays low, skidding off a length, missing the bat and hitting the pads as the batsman misses his flick. An LBW appeal ensues but that was pitching outside leg.

Tim Southee To Jonny Bairstow
What was the noise? Looks like something has come off Bairstow's willow. In fact, it is a piece of wood. Short of a length delivery on off, Bairstow looks to pull but the ball hits the bottom half of the bat and goes towards short mid-wicket. Jonny immediately has a look at his bat and checks it. The piece has gone to the off side. Lucky that it has not hit the stumps.
