    WICKET

    Bates c Glenn b Dean 4 (NZ 31-4)

    Yep, gone.

    Smart catch, take a few steps and snaffling the ball.

    Charlie Dean has two wickets in the over, both off reverse sweeps.

  2. Umpire review

    A second wicket in the over?

    Sarah Glenn gobbles up Suzie Bates' reverse sweep flick on the dive.

    The umpires decide to check if the catch was taken cleanly.

    Charlie Dean very rarely misses, she's always targetting the stumps.

    The finger almost went up before the appeal!

  5. wicket

    WICKET

    Halliday lbw b Dean 14 (NZ 28-3)

    Charlie Dean has a wicket with her first ball!

    Brooke Halliday attempts the reverse sweep and she's struck low on the pad right in front. New Zealand try a speculative appeal, but it's very much out.

    An impressive cameo from Halliday comes to an end, she had 14 from nine balls.

  6. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Sounds

    You always know when Nat Sciver-Brunt thinks she should have taken it because she acts dead. She lies down like she isn't there.

  7. 6 runs

    Halliday dropped on seven

    Need 62 from 30 balls

    Sophie Ecclestone will be ticking.

    She sees Capsey fumble her pick-up at backward square to allow a second run, before Nat Sciver-Brunt spills a catch on the long-on boundary.

    The England all-rounder didn't have to move much to meet Brooke Halliday's shot and went to take the catch above her head, but the ball slipped from her hands and an attempt at a recovery grab was unsuccessful.

    And to make matters worse, the ball dropped over the boundary ropes for six.

  8. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Sounds

    You would say this is game over already. I was thinking it as soon as Sophie Devine was out.

  9. NZ 16-2

    Need 74 from 36 balls

    Superb shot from new batter Brooke Halliday, making room to drive Sciver-Brunt uppishly through the covers.

    Three England fielders sprint after it, but their chase is in vain, with the ball crossing the ropes.

    That's the end of the powerplay, and having started needing ten an over, New Zealand are behind the rate.

  10. Frankie Mackay
    Ex-New Zealand all-rounder on BBC Sounds

    This is what I had concerns about. Amelia Kerr was trying to create a strike-rate and she's just picked out the fielder. She's at her best in the middle of the innings when she can manipulate the field. Using her in the powerplay doesn't feel like the best use of her.

  11. wicket

    WICKET

    A Kerr c Capsey b Sciver-Brunt 2 (NZ 12-2)

    Another grab for Capsey!

    It's Amelia Kerr that's heading for the pavilion, trying to whip the ball away into the leg side and offering a chance to England's 19-year-old star, who takes the catch diving to her right.

    Lauren Bell celebrates the wicket of Sophie DevinePA Media

    I remember seeing Lauren Bell here at KSL finals day here about five or six years ago and she just has an action where you think 'hmm, we're going to be seeing more of you'.

    She's got a way to go but she's got all the ingredients. She's got height, the ability to move the ball and she's shown good composure here.

  13. NZ 12-1

    Target 90

    Amelia Kerr is next up for New Zealand, she drops a single straight away, easily beating Bell's throw back to the bowler's end.

  14. Frankie Mackay
    Ex-New Zealand all-rounder on BBC Sounds

    That is great composure from Alice Capsey because you would expect that to rocket at you at shoulder or head height.

    Lauren Bell celebrates the wicket of Sophie DevinePA Media

    Lauren Bell can barely believe it after being smacked for four and that wide that she's got that wicket. It was nonchalantly taken from Alice Capsey.

  16. wicket

    WICKET

    Devine c Capsey b Bell 9 (NZ 11-1)

    Much better from Bell - she has the wicket of Sophie Devine!

    The New Zealand captain cracks a pull shot straight into the hands of Alice Capsey at mid-on.

    She didn't really have room to play the shot.

  17. Frankie Mackay
    Ex-New Zealand all-rounder on BBC Sounds

    That was a good tidy up from Amy Jones, she's saved four.

  18. NZ 11-0

    Lauren Bell at the other end for England. She sends a mega-wide down the leg side that Amy Jones gathers impressively, before dropping in a bouncer that Sophie Devine cuts uppishly over the ring for four.

  19. Frankie Mackay
    Ex-New Zealand all-rounder on BBC Sounds

    Nat Sciver-Brunt just got a little straight with her line. That is the power that Sophie Devine possesses.

  20. NZ 6-0

    Almost six for Sophie Devine!

    She heaves the fourth delivery of the over square, the ball plugging just short of the boundary rope and then popping over.

    The New Zealand captain then skews an edge in the air, but the ball drops just short of third.
