    "I do like the intention of both batsmen if its short and wide they are going to fetch it over the boundary, much better than just trying to survive."

    Machan shows Tim Southee he's not overawed by seizing on a short ball and pulling it to the mid-wicket fence.

    A penny for Paul Collingwood's thoughts in the Scotland dressing room. This, of course, was precisely the kind of dire situation that Colly was so adept at digging England out of - how Scotland must wish they could ask him to strap his pads on. Another heart-in-mouth moment for the Scots as Machan completely mistimes a pull and it falls just short of the desperately diving Adam Milne at mid-on.

  5. Scotland 12-4published at 22:29 Greenwich Mean Time 16 February 2015

    Southee's hat-trick ball is better than Boult's, right on the stumps, but new man Richie Berrington keeps it out with a watertight forward defensive stroke. A massive rebuilding task in front of Scotland now.

    It is not going down leg. Scotland are in a whole heap of trouble here. Mommsen, perhaps expecting his first ball to shape away, is surprised by one fired into his pads. Hawkeye says it would have taken out leg stump, and Mommsen trudges back to the pavilion. Now Southee is on a hat-trick!

    Tim Southee could have another one here. He raps Preston Mommen on the pads first ball and the umpire's finger is raised again. Mommsen wants a review - is it going down leg?

    "It was a sharpish catch one you'd expected to see taken but another yard either side and it would have been four. What do Scotland do now? Dig in!"

    New Zealand are reducing the Scotland top order to rubble here. Tim Southee strays on to Kyle Coetzer's pads and the batsman eyes light up, but his aerial flick picks out Grant Elliott, who takes a very sharp catch at silly mid-on.

    Trent Boult has got the Scottish batsmen on hot buttered toast at the moment. He defeats Machan all ends up with the first two deliveries of this over, with electric pace and slippery late movement. But Machan responds well when Boult strays too wide and the batsman eases him through the covers for four.

  11. Scotland 7-2published at 22:16 Greenwich Mean Time 16 February 2015

    Tim Southee and Trent Boult are New Zealand's Test opening bowlers too and they are high-class operators - able to make the ball talk and with the added difficulty of being a left-arm right-arm combo. Not the sort of pair that you want to face first up in the World Cup, in other words. Scotland get their first runs off the bat when Southee strays onto Machan's pads and the batsman flicks him away behind square for four.

  13. Scotland 1-2 (Boult 2-1 off 1 over)published at 22:13 Greenwich Mean Time 16 February 2015

    Boult strays a little with the hat-trick ball, drifting one down outside off. But the remaining deliveries are bang on the money, and new man Matt Machan looks all at sea as he flashes at a full swinging delivery.

    "It's not easy sometimes for the umpire to give two in a row, this one was fuller, the sort you don't want first up zeroing in on the stumps."

    This is magnificent swing bowling by Trent Boult. He does for new man Hamish Gardiner with another pearl, trapping him in front of the timbers with an almost identical delivery, shaping back into the pads late on and defeating the batsman's groping blade. The worst possible start for the Scots, and Boult is on a hat-trick.

    Disaster for Scotland as Calum MacLeod goes without scoring. Trent Boult takes just two balls to find his radar, sending down a leg-side wide before wanging down an absolute jaffa that swings back in late and thumps MacLeod on the pad. That's adjacent and the fingers goes up.

  17. Scotland 0-0published at 22:05 Greenwich Mean Time 16 February 2015

    Tim Southee takes the new nut for New Zealand. There's a hint of nip in the air as his first ball shapes past the off stump, watched judiciously by Kyle Coetzer. Coetzer is determined not to take any unnecessary risks first up and he plays out six dots. Maiden over for Southee.

    "The Kiwis have been right on top of their game they've been very careful to point out there will be no relaxing, they have picked the same team and are not going to take them lightly at all. So this really would be an upset if Scotland were to beat them."

    It feels weird hearing Scotland belt out 'Flower of Scotland' against New Zealand without seeing the haka follow immediately afterwards. But New Zealand's cricketers are a less demonstrative bunch - they let their cricket do the talking, or indeed screaming and thigh-slapping. We're nearly ready to go in Dunedin.
