177/5 (33.1/50)
175 (36.0/50)
New Zealand beat England by 5 wickets
That is all from this game. New Zealand are making it look easy thanks to their relentless bowling performance in both matches. However, concerns will be in the away dressing room with their overall performance. England will be expected to give a fight in the last game. Join us on the 1st of November for the third and final ODI. Join us at 1 am GMT and earlier for the build up. Till then, cheers!
Mitchell Santner, the captain of New Zealand says it was a great game, the boys were exceptional with the ball, the seamers adapted to the conditions quickly despite not much off the surface. Tells they would have taken 170 any day, but Jofra Archer and Brydon Carse bowled well for England and made it difficult for them. Feels Rachin Ravindra's inning wasn't fluent but it was a much-needed innings from him. On Daryl Mitchell, Mitchell Santner says he has been outstanding in the ODIs and hopes it continues. Ends by appreciating Blair Tickner and Jacob Duffy's performance.
Harry Brook, the skipper of England, says he is disappointed but hopes to come back stronger against the World number 2 ranked team. Shares the conditions are similar to England, it's a nice wicket to bat on but it's a matter of going through the first period and then cashing in. Reckons they want to entertain the world but it's not going well for them. On Jofra Archer, Harry Brook says he is an awesome bowler, a valuable asset for the team. Admits they want to dig deep, stay aggressive with the bat.
Blair Tickner wins the PLAYER OF THE MATCH AWARD. He says he didn't expect to make the XI and was informed last night. Shares taking early wickets is the way to go, he just continued by bowling with consistency. Mentions he is enjoying his cricket right now. Reckons there is no pressure right now, he'll go back to the domestic grind.
Presentation...
England's batting struggles persisted as they were bowled out for 175 in 36 overs, with wickets falling regularly and preventing significant partnerships. However, New Zealand's pace bowlers, led by Blair Tickner's impressive 4/34 from 8 overs, performed admirably and broke England's back in the middle phase. An excellent job from New Zealand despite the absence of their prime bowler, Matt Henry.
It wasn't a straightforward win for New Zealand. Jofra Archer removed Will Young in the first over, showcasing good accuracy and consistency throughout his spell. The short deliveries troubled the Kiwi batters, but Rachin Ravindra demonstrated his class, batting through a tough segment to score a fine fifty. However, there was a period in the middle phase when England dominated. Adil Rashid and Jofra Archer bowled in tandem, making it tough, but it was a matter of when, rather than if, for the home team, as they were certain to cross the line.
It wasn't a pretty win, but New Zealand secured a crucial victory, taking an unassailable lead in the 3-match ODI series. Chasing a modest target, England's bowlers initially made it challenging for the Kiwis to cross the line, but ultimately, New Zealand's determination and effective batting partnership secured the win. Daryl Mitchell once again showed how to soak in pressure against some class bowling. His innings was a match-winning one but it was Mitchell Santner's cameo that helped New Zealand cross the line.

Jofra Archer To Kane Williamson
ANOTHER HUGE SHOUT AND THIS TIME IT IS WILLIAMSON! Good length, and this one nibbles back into the pads. Williamson looked to defend, but was squared up, being hit on the pad! Archer went to ground, showing the effort he had put in, but it was not enough to convince the umpire. It looked high, but given it is Williamson, Brook sends it upstairs with a second to spare. It struck above the knee roll on the back pad, but with Williamson forward on the crease, this is clearing off. Review lost, but what a first over.
