Ex-New Zealand captain on BBC Test Match Special

"An emphatic stroke from Williamson to end that mini session. Davey isn't that quick and you can't bowl short. It should be a comfortable game for New Zealand and they won't want to lose too many wickets. There's a nice chance, no scoreboard pressure. They deserve it, they bowled nicely, caught OK and Scotland didn't set a demanding enough total."

Josh Davey, who has the two best bowling performances by an Associate player in ODIs, is brought into the attack. He begins with a rather ugly wide, before Williamson ends the over by smearing a pull to the cow-corner boundary.

And that rather curiously, takes us to the lunch interval. Play will resume in the usual 45 minutes.

Some Taylor-on-Taylor action for you now as Scotland's Rob bowls to New Zealand's new man Ross. The batsman is away with a push into the off side, and then he finds the boundary for the first time with a booming cover drive. Classy stroke.

What a curious innings from McCullum. He seemed intent on launching everything to the boundary. He departs trying to force one off the back foot and giving a simple catch to the keeper.

While Brendon McCullum is determined to chase this target with quick brutality, Kane Williamson is quite content just to play his normal game. He plays out five dots and then flicks Taylor into the leg side for a single.

"If we're honest this game has gone and the challenge for Scotland is to ensure it doesn't dent their confidence for the rest of the tournament. Yeovil football manager Gary Johnson once said 'it is better to lose 6-0 once than 1-0 six times'".

McCullum uses his feet well to get a straight delivery from Wardlaw away powerfully through cover for another boundary. More tap as Wardlaw serves one up short and wide and McCullum batters it to the fence again. New Zealand are in the mood to knock these runs off quickly.

Scotland equalled the world record for four first-ball ducks in an ODI innings.

Calum MacLeod, Hamish Gardiner, skipper Preston Mommsen and Iain Wardlaw were the batsmen dismissed.

Number 10 batsman Majid Haq was out to his second ball.

Other occasions this has happened are Pakistan v England at The Oval in 2003 and Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Jamshedpur in 1999, but Scotland is the first in a World Cup.

Scotland's fielders think they're in business again when McCullum drives aerially on the off-side, but he's threaded it through the covers well. He doesn't place the next one so well though - he flicks into the leg side and picks out Hamish Gardiner, running in from the rope at midwicket, but the fielder grasses the chance. What a let off for New Zealand. You sense those have got to stick for Scotland. Williamson eases the last ball of the over for four through the covers.

Will Porter: Who needs lunch when you can tuck into the buffet served up by Scotland's bowling attack?

Kane Williamson, who has scored 13 fifties in his last 17 ODI innings, is the next man, and he's immediately off the mark with a single.

"Guptill went for a big drive, edged it and it was a fairly straightforward catch. You wonder how he edged it but he's gone. In comes Kane Williamson, a man bound for the IPL."

Martin Guptill is in no mood to hang around. He clatters consecutive fours from the first two balls of Wardlaw's over, but then he tries one booming drive too many and snicks behind to Matthew Cross.

That's the quick breakthrough that Scotland needed - now can they put New Zealand under pressure.

Rob Taylor to open up from the other end, with the unenviable task of bowling to Brendon McCullum. McCullum shows his intentions from the very first ball, climbing into a wide one and mistiming it into the off-side for a single. No problems with Guptill's timing though, as Taylor overpitches and he clobbers him down to long-on for four.

"Scotland sort of mirroring the Kiwi attack, the tall rangy Wardlaw and Rob Tayor is left-arm over. I don't think he'll get the same penetrating swing as Trent Boult. I don't know who will get man of this match but I think it's going to be a Kiwi."

Thanks Jamie. It's Iain Wardlaw with the new ball for Scotland, and Martin Guptill gets New Zealand up and running with a handsome straight drive that bounces back over the bowler's head and runs away for four. That's the only scoring shot of the first over.

Well who thought we would see five slips in a World Cup match? Anyway, how many of the 143 required can New Zealand score before the official lunch interval in 37 minutes? Over to James Gheerbrant to describe the pre-lunch mini-session.
