Earlier, it was Southee who left England clueless after Morgan won the toss and batted on a flat looking pitch.

Southee achieved the third-best figures in all World Cups and beat the previous best by a New Zealander in all ODIs, recorded by Shane Bond, now the team's bowling coach, who took six for 19 against India at Bulawayo in 2005.

Openers Ian Bell (eight) and Moeen Ali (20) were both bowled by Southee, who subsequently dismissed James Taylor (nought), Jos Buttler (three), Chris Woakes (one), Stuart Broad (four) and Steven Finn (nought).

He took his final five wickets in the space of just 18 balls to record the third best figures in all World Cups behind the Australian duo of Glenn McGrath (7-15) and Andy Bichel (7-20).

New Zealand captain McCullum's rollicking 25-ball 77 with seven sixes and eight fours at the top of the order then saw the tournament co-hosts romp to victory in just 12.2 overs of their reply in Wellington.

McCullum held the previous record for the fastest World Cup fifty, off 20 balls against Canada at St Lucia in 2007.

England succumbed to their second successive defeat in as many matches in the World Cup.
