NZ vs ENG Live Cricket Score

2.5 OUT! Dragged on! There falls the first wicket. This was coming. No boundary scored in the first 16 balls, with as many as 10 dots. The pressure was building and Guptill has fallen prey. A short ball, around off, angling away, Guppy looks to pull but the ball comes on slowly after pitching. Takes the inside edge and illuminates the Zinc bails as the stumps are dislodged. 6/1

6 OUT! Caught! A wicket off a full toss. Jordan goes for the yorker but gets it wrong. Thankfully, for him, isn't it? Munro looks to get it over the infield on the leg side but he is not able to get the elevation. Ends up chipping it straight to Eoin Morgan at short mid-wicket who takes it and celebrates! 39/2

13.1 OUT! Caught! Jordan gets a wicket immediately on return. A high full toss, dipping down, Seifert looks to pull but the ball hits him high on the bat. He gets more height than distance and Jonny Bairstow takes it running in from deep mid-wicket. Seifert has a look at the umpires and they ask him to wait. The replay is shown on the giant screen and Siefert starts to go back to the batting crease to resume batting. That is strange. Looks to be below the waist as it was dipping down and the third umpire checks and checks again. Eventually, signals OUT on the giant screen and Tim has to walk back to the dugout. Does not look happy but if our opinion mattered, it looked out. End of a fine knock. 93/4

10.1 OUT! Caught! Big wicket. Rashid has taken out Colin de Grandhomme. The batsman has not nailed that shot. We have seen some big sixes from him but this is a mistimed shot. A drag down, outside off, de Grandhomme looks to pull but perhaps the ball comes on a bit too quickly. The mistimed shot goes straight to James Vince at deep mid-wicket who makes no mistake. The 33-run stand is broken. 72/3

19.3 OUT! Caught! Pat Brown has his first international wicket for England, thanks to Jonny Bairstow. Not keeping in this game but that has made no difference to his athleticism. An ordinary ball, a half tracker, Taylor pulls and pulls with aplomb. The connection is good as well but the elevation, not so. The hit is a flat one and Bairstow at deep mid-wicket spots it like a hawk. Comes running in a touch and dives forward to take the catch inches above the ground. Never easy to take such catches with the ball dipping. James Vince knows a thing or two about that. Rosco departs after a brisk 44 and the 56-run stand is broken. 149/5

9.5 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. 68/2

5.4 OUT! Caught! The first wicket falls at last. Full and around middle and leg, Malan comes down the track, looks to go downtown but is not to the pitch of the ball. The ball lands, spins away, takes the leading edge and goes to short third man where Ish Sodhi takes it calmly. The entertaining opening stand is broken. 37/1

15.2 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. Vince throws away another start. 122/3
