    "Normally batsmen have a range of shots in their head for where a bowler bowls it, but I suspect Williamson always has an extra shot available to him and can execute it superbly."

  2. NZ 149-2 (Williamson 72*, Taylor 55*)published at 16:26 British Summer Time 14 June 2015

    Taylor has shown occasional glimpses of the powerful hitter we know he can be, tucking into a shorter delivery from Stokes which disappears to the mid-wicket boundary.

    The Kiwis are nearly halfway to their target, with less than half their available overs gone. If you weren't with us earlier, England were bowled out for 302 with 4.4 overs unused.

    Crispy: England need a wicket soon. This game is starting to get away from them, despite the high score.

    "Morgan has gone to Root and Stokes, almost like saying that he is just hoping to nick one out before the enforcers come back. At the moment, it is question of whether you go to your main fella and Wood has seemed to hit the pitch harder than anyone else."

  5. Taylor 50published at 16:22 British Summer Time 14 June 2015

    A tighter over from Root, four singles from it, the last of which allows Ross Taylor to raise his bat for his 32nd ODI fifty from 56 balls.

    "This is when the game is won and lost, here and now. If England can get a couple out quickly they are in it. If not, they are heading to defeat."

    Taylor is ready to resume, seeing off the last delivery of the over from Stokes.

    Play is still suspended at Arundel, as we mentioned - Surrey's Moises Henriques and Rory Burns are still being treated, with three ambulances on the field.

  9. NZ 139-2published at 16:17 British Summer Time 14 June 2015

    Fun and games at the Ageas Bowl as a young fan, hooked up to ropes, attempts to ascend a climbing wall, but England will have a mountain to climb unless they can split this pair. But Taylor is struck a painful blow from Stokes as he tries a full-blooded pull shot and only succeeds in clubbing the ball straight into the unmentionables. He rolls over with pain, tries to get up... and then falls to the ground again. He's going to need a visit from the physio as Stokes did earlier...

    "I would give Wood a bowl. He is the most likely to get a wicket and break this partnership up. It is difficult to do just by creating pressure."

  11. NZ 136-2 (Williamson 68*, Taylor 46*)published at 16:13 British Summer Time 14 June 2015

    England stick with spin at the Northern End, but replace the leg-spin of Rashid with the off-spin of Joe Root - Taylor guides him off his legs, but Mark Wood gets on his imaginary horse and gives chase, sprinting to stop the ball in front of the rope and turn four into three. But New Zealand continue to profit with five easy singles off the rest of the over.

    The century stand has been reached from 81 balls. Fair to say, England need to take wickets or they will lose this game with overs to spare.

    Ben Stokes is England's fifth bowler, fresh from his batting heroics, he finds a bit of bounce against Taylor who plays and misses with a flashing cut shot. But three singles - and a couple of wild wides - mean New Zealand continue to tick along at a good rate. They are scoring at 6.73 and the required rate is 5.64.

    "That was a lovely piece of dismantling of a leg-spinner by Kane Williamson. Surgical. I suspect that will be the last we see of Rashid for a bit."

  15. Williamson 50published at 16:05 British Summer Time 14 June 2015

    Williamson shows some aggression against Rashid, whacking a loose delivery for four back past the bowler - and that's his fifty, from 46 balls. Using his feet well to the spinner, he lofts another four through long-on before whipping another boundary to the same region. Williamson show his range of shots with a careful dab past the keeper for his fourth four of the over - and it may be time for Rashid, with 0-37 from four overs, to take a rest while Williamson is in this form.

    It appears as though there has been an unfortunate incident in the T20 Blast match at Arundel between Sussex and Surrey. Two visiting fielders have collided going for the same ball, which has led to play being suspended and huge number of medics administering treatment. The Surrey Twitter feed suggests the two players involved could be Moises Henriques and Rory Burns. More on that as we get it.

    You can listen to coverage of all the T20 games via the BBC Sport website.

    It's not quite been Steven Finn's day today, a duck with the bat (not that it should matter as much to a number 11) but it's been easy pickings against him for New Zealand today - he has 0-28 from five overs.

    The umpires wave the drinks on - my impression is that New Zealand's noses are ever so slightly in front at this moment, as evidenced by the fact that England were 98-2 at this stage.

    "Rashid hasn't bowled so many full tosses as he did at the Oval. He is bowling at a bit of a quicker speed than he did on Friday as well, where he tossed it up just a bit too much."

  19. NZ 100-2 (target 303)published at 15:53 British Summer Time 14 June 2015

    Williamson forces Rashid for two backward of point, prompting Morgan to post another fielder to that region. Rashid, spinning the ball from hand to hand between deliveries as leg-spinners seem prone to doing, is unable to prevent the third-wicket pair picking off singles, while Taylor expertly threads a four through the covers to bring New Zealand into three figures.

    "Steven Finn was just smashing his cap on his leg. He knows those first two balls were too loose and wide. Ross Taylor will smash those away all day long."
