NZ vs WI Live Cricket Score

11.3 OUT! Stop the press! A wicket has fallen! Not the best of balls but will the Windies care? Full and wide outside off, Guptill throws his bat at it but this time only succeeds in nicking it behind. Walton does not make any mess. Neither is it a no ball. So in short, the wicket is counted and Martin has to go. Nice knock, even though it was second fiddle and Windies can finally dream of RESTRICTING the Kiwis to some score. 136/1

19.1 OUT! Colin falls. A full ball on middle, Munro looks to swing this over long on but for once, his mistimed shot finds the fielder. Hetmyer takes the catch and Brathwaite has his second scalp. The crowd rises as one to applaud the outstanding knock. What a display. 226/5

16 OUT! Bowled! You miss I hit. Brathwaite is pumped up. Remember the name, he might be saying. But New Zealand will not mind. At the current score, no Kiwi will. Bruce telegraphs his intentions to get across probably way back in 2017 and Brathwaite bowls it in line of the off stump in the month of January in 2018. Bruce is too far across to connect with his paddle and misses. The ball hits the stumps. Good knock though. 191/2

17.1 OUT! Okay a run out. But the non-striker. Full and around off, Munro gets across to sweep but misses. The ball hits his pads and goes behind to the keeper but Munro does not know where it is Kitchen, in the meanwhile, looks for a single and almost comes over to hand the cutleries to Munro. But Colin is simply not interested and Kitchen has to go back. Too late. Walton actually throws the ball at the striker's end but misses and Emrit calmly collects and disturbs the bails at his end. 204/3

19 OUT! Drags it on! Change of pace does the trick. In fact, Williamson does something which is not there in his books and pays the price. Drags a short delivery well away from his body and gets a thick inside edge onto his stumps. Had he tried to play the cut or some other shot, might have got a boundary as well. Taylor reaches figures of 4-0-53-1. 226/4

0.1 OUT! Oh dear. Gone. First ball. Full and wide outside off, Walton reaches out and smashes it. Straight to cover. Munro takes it with ease. The Kiwis are pumped up and the Windies have begun badly with the bat as well. 0/1

0.5 OUT! Good night. The game is over. Terrific bowling from Southee. He is yet to complete his first over but has already bagged two scalps. A brilliant short ball, around leg stump, Gayle is caught hopping as he looks to fend. He has his eyes closed and the ball goes off his gloves to the keeper behind. The Kiwis appeal while Southee does not even bother to turn back. But Gayle does not walk and now the umpire raises his finger. A 2-ball duck. End of the chase? 1/2

8.1 OUT! Number 5 down. And possibly the best possible chance for Windies goes as well, if they ever had one. The googly around off, Fletcher swings wildly but misses. The ball spins in and hits the stumps. Fletcher trudges back. Such is the luck for the visitors that even a half century is denied for their batsmen. Unless someone else can get there. 80/5

3.5 OUT! Maiden T20I wicket for Kitchen! Full and outside off, Powell wildly slogs across the line but mistimes it big time as the ball turns away. It takes the top edge and goes really high in the air but Kane Williamson at short cover keeps his eyes on the ball and takes a well-judged catch. 42/3

4.5 OUT! Another one down and this is in the form of a run out. Fletcher cuts this towards point and Hetmyer calls for the single. However, in spite of being the caller, Shimron is very slow while Colin Munro is quick as lightning. Gets to the ball from backward point, swoops down like an eagle and throws the ball towards the keeper. Phillips gets in front of the stumps, collects the ball and disturbs the stumps. Hetmyer was not even in the frame. 49/4

10.4 OUT! Brathwaite holes out! The change of end does it for Boult! He lands it on a length around off, Carlos tries to pull it over long on. He gets the elevation but not the distance. Bruce there, runs to his right and takes it reverse cup. 92/6

12.1 OUT! Excellent review by New Zealand! Sodhi bowls it flatter on off and gets it to go on with the arm. Emrit gets into position early to play the sweep but misses. Sodhi makes a half-hearted appeal to which the umpire shakes his head. The ball rolls towards fine leg and the batsmen take a single. The umpire signals a leg bye and hence Williamson decides to review. Replays roll in and there is no Hot Spot or Snicko available. After looking at several replays, the umpire decides there is no bat or glove involved and Hawk Eye shows three reds. Emrit is giving his marching orders. 99/7

13.5 OUT! A soft dismissal! Not the best ball Boult would have bowled but he won't mind. He bowls a full toss on off, Taylor is surprised by it. He tries to clip it but gets a top edge towards covers where Santner takes it easily. The Kiwis are one wicket away from a cleansweep. 114/8

16.3 OUT! In the air...taken! That is it. Southee has taken the last wicket and he finishes with three. He bowls a slower one on middle, Badree is early into the shot and he balloons it towards Bruce at long on who runs in, settles himself under it and takes an easy catch. All smiles on the faces of the New Zealand player as THEY HAVE WON BY 119 RUNS, THEIR BIGGEST EVER T20I WIN! 124/9
