Ooh, England get in a muddle thinking of a single and Tammy Beaumont is forced to dive full stretch to get back into her crease. The umpire's send it upstairs.
This looks very, very close.

Ooh, England get in a muddle thinking of a single and Tammy Beaumont is forced to dive full stretch to get back into her crease. The umpire's send it upstairs.
This looks very, very close.
Sophie Devine drops one in too short and with Tammy Beaumont in this form it was always going to the rope.
England wrapped up victory in 21.1 overs on Wednesday, we are on for something similar here.
England are not just slashing at everything, they are picking out the ones and twos as well as boundaries - helped again by the freedom of such a small target.

This is not normal. New Zealand are not this bad. They are normally a good unit, they've just got a few tweaks going on.
The shot selection between the two sides is so different. It's not something that New Zealand will just be able to do in the next game too, it takes time and confidence building.
They can definitely bowl first in the next game, though. That would help.
England's current run-rate is six, their required rate is a little over two. So it would rake something pretty spectacular for them to fail here.
Skipper Sophie Devine has had enough and decides to bring herself on at the cost of just one run, restoring a little bit of control for New Zealand.

This is just good cricket from England and really good batting. They aren't going out there and slogging. They are just playing good shots based on the ball bowled to them. It's just really clinical cricket.

That was a horrid misfield. It went pretty much straight to the fielder. It is not what New Zealand want or need at this stage.
Target 142
New Zealand's cause isn't helped by a misfield from Maddy Green, who lets a Maia Bouchier drive escape her grasp and run away for four.
Tammy Beaumont then plays a shot straight from the textbook as she drives gloriously through the covers.
England have hit 11 boundaries so far. There were only 16 in the entire New Zealand innings.
Isabelle Westbury
Ex-Middlesex captain on BBC Sounds
That is an expansive drive. Maia Bouchier saw the opportunity and took advantage. It is an accomplished shot.
That short watchful spell is over as Maia Bouchier clubs Fran Jonas away for back-to-back boundaries.
Jonas then bowls a wild wide costs three runs to bring up England's 50.
Feels very, very comfortable at the moment.
The introduction of spin has slowed the scoring slightly as Amelia Kerr's first over goes for just a single.
Again, with such a low target England can afford to do that.
Fran Jonas comes into the attack and Tammy Beaumont sweeps her first ball powerfully for four.
With such a small target that's all that England need, so Beaumont is watchful for the remainder of the left-armer's over.
We have seen some wonderful strokeplay from Maia Bouchier so far. Here are a couple of her best shots.
Now it is Tammy Beaumont's turn to smile as she punishes another overpitched Molly Penfold delivery by driving straight down the ground for four.
England are cruising at the moment.

There is nothing more satisfying than when extra cover and mid-off both dive and you still find the gap.
Kevin Howells
BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds
It's terrific how Maia Bouchier is placing these shots.
Maia Bouchier rocks onto the back foot and powers a shot that perfectly dissects extra cover and mid-off before flying over the rope. The next ball is perfectly driven slightly squarer but beats the fielder for the same result.
Bouchier has a beaming smile on her face and you can understand why.
Kevin Howells
BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds
There's a real flourish to some of these shots. We're seeing all the confidence behind them.
Now Tammy Beaumont is joining in the fun.
It is a lovely shot too, as the England opener elegantly drives through the covers.
Frankie Mackay
Ex-New Zealand all-rounder on BBC Sounds
Just a pitched-up delivery, essentially a half-volley that Bouchier is able to lean into and launch over the top.
Then the next is perfection, everything you want from a front-foot drive.
