  1. NZ 100-3

    Target 223

    England's 50-over team still looks a frontline bowler light but they can hardly drop a batter given their current form.

    We all know that NZ will probably fall to 120-5 and then win by 5 wickets. England's inability to bowl teams out has been apparent since last winter but now we can't even post a competitive score to defend either!

  3. NZ 94-3

    Need 129 more runs to win

    Brydon Carse gives Tom Latham an early welcome to the crease with a delivery that rises to hit his forearm. That has hurt the New Zealand left-hander who is waving his arm around to relieve the pain.

  4. NZ 92-3

    Jamie Overton has 1-12 at an economy of three runs per over now after his 62-ball 68.

    New Zealand are still at 73% on WinViz.

  5. wicket

    WICKET

    Young c Buttler b Overton 1 (NZ 92-3)

    A fifty, a run-out and now a wicket for Jamie Overton! Will Young tries to whack him to New Zealand's south island and gets a towering top edge that is caught by wicketkeeper Jos Buttler.

    New Zealand have gone from 78-0 to 92-3.

  6. NZ 90-2

    Target 223

    And Mitchell adds a bit more to that average by driving aerially for four at the end of the over.

  7. Rufus Bullough

    Daryl Mitchell comes to the crease and will be licking his lips at the prospect of facing the English bowlers - he averages 110 against them in ODI cricket in six innings, with a strike rate of 97.

  8. NZ 86-2

    That brings in the in-form Daryl Mitchell and, with the all-rounder walking towards him, Sam Curran hurls a bouncer a mile over his head for five wides.

    Sam Curran has broken the drought. Wicketless through his last six ODI innings and he breaks it with an absolute cracker to get the wicket of Rachin Ravindra.

    Two new batters at the crease and a chance for England. Could there yet be a twist in this game?

  10. wicket

    WICKET

    Ravindra b Curran 46 (NZ 81-2)

    Two in five balls for England. Sam Curran sneaks one through Rachin Ravindra as the left-hander tries to work to leg.

  11. NZ 79-1

    Target 223

    If you were being harsh you'd say that's the only way England were going to take a wicket.

  12. Frankie Mackay
    Ex-New Zealand all-rounder on TNT Sports

    Nobody is picking that as the way the first wicket would fall! Devon Conway has no chance whatsoever of getting back.

  13. wicket

    WICKET

    Conway run out (Overton) 34 (NZ 78-1)

    How fortunate is this?!

    Rachin Ravindra drills a drive back to Jamie Overton, Overton tries to catch it on the bounce, misjudges it and the ball hits his wrist and deflects onto the stumps at the non-striker's end. Conway is out of his ground and is run out!

  14. NZ 72-0

    Conway 29, Ravindra 42

    Sam Curran comes on and huffs and puffs through an over, mixing his pace as he goes, without ever really looking like taking a wicket.

  15. NZ 69-0

    Target 223

    I am losing track of all of the stats to sum up England's failings. I make it nine times out of 15 ODIs they've been bowled out this year.

  16. Rufus Bullough

    Batting in the first 10 overs in this ODI series:

    • New Zealand: 143-4 - Run rate: 4.76 - Balls per wicket: 45
    • England: 131-11 - Run rate: 4.36 - Balls per wicket: 16
  17. 6 runs

    NZ 64-0

    Target 223

    Conway makes up for it somewhat by cutting the ball up and over backward point and into the stands where an enthusiastic gentleman takes the catch.

    He slashes the final ball for four too, meaning 24 runs have come from Archer's over. He stomps away to his fielding position where it may be best to leave him for a while.

  18. Not out

    Conway's bat is in the air but his boot is beyond the line. He's slightly lucky but is in.

    The ball has deflected for four overthrows too - another blow to England and an increasingly grumpy Archer.

  19. Umpire review

    If Devon Conway is run out here he'll be furious with himself.

    He hasn't run his bat in.

  20. NZ 40-0

    Target 223

    It's a maiden to start from Jamie Overton. He's leading a one-man race for the player-of-the-match award from an England perspective.

    Jofra Archer is actually changing ends...
