    "Another brilliant ball. Bowled with pace and a brilliant catch from Morgan. Wood is in the action and is deserving his contract. This team is full of a lot of match winners."

    Mark Wood has surely broken the back of this New Zealand chase.

    Tim Southee chops at a good length ball, catches it sweet but on the up. Unfortunately for New Zealand it is straight to Eoin Morgan at mid-off and he clings on tight.

    "Absolutely incredible. Sums up England's summer. The attacking was incredible. The key man is gone and now it is a tough ask for New Zealand from here."

    The beginning of the end?

    Kane Williamson is out of his ground and David Willey scores a direct strike.

    "Another brilliant ball. Wood deserves that contract. He has already had an impact and has taken key wickets. He really looks like a force for the future."

    Santner tries to up the pace and gets his comeuppance. Mark Wood's pace and angle down for him as his ugly sideways slash gets nowhere near the ball.

    And there is a gaping hole where his off stump should be.

    "Good over by Finn but England are still searching for wickets. That is really, really important."

    Steven Finn in stingy mood. Plenty of shorter stuff in there and a hat-tip to Alex Hales in the deep who gets across well to prevent two runs becoming four.

    New Zealand's flow of runs has dried to a trickle.

    They need 64 runs off 36 balls. Time to chance the arm and start swinging.

    Stuart Wood:, external Wouldn't it be fantastic to see the likes of Waqar, Wasim, Walsh, Donald etc bowling against this devastating batting.

    Ben Sutton:, external Good captaincy to keep Rashid on. One bad over doesn't mean he should be off on a pitch taking spin. Well bowled as well, Adil.

    Richard Gauntlett:, external Who cares about the Ashes, it's going to be a great one day series!

  10. NZ 123-5 (target 192)published at 21:11 British Summer Time 23 June 2015

    Adil Rashid cramps New Zealand's style with some canny spin. He has tied down that end well over his last couple of overs. A single off every ball, but no more.

    New Zealand are still ahead of England at the same point in their innings. But their trump cards - Williamson apart - are spent.

    They need 69 runs off the last seven overs, at a rate of nearly 10. Even my maths can tell you that.

    Louis Strong:, external Question is, who would you rather have as your number 3? Root or Williamson?

  12. NZ 117-5 (target 192)published at 21:07 British Summer Time 23 June 2015

    Good little individual battle this between Ben Stokes and Kane Williamson as they go head to head for a full over.

    The England bowler racks up dot balls on his first and third deliveries with tidy line and length and then a drop in pace.

    On balls two and four though Williamson produces two textbook drives to find the boundary.

    One of the last ball as well, just back of square. Twelve runs off the over , all in gorgeous style. New Zealand's hopes pinned on Wiliamson.

  14. NZ 105-5 (target 192)published at 21:02 British Summer Time 23 June 2015

    After the butchery he was on the end of in the first over, Adil Rashid is getting into the game.

    Just four runs off that cagey set of six.

    New Zealand need 87 runs off 54 balls or nine overs.

    "That is a unique shot. Stokes has bowled the slower bouncer and all he has managed to do is spoon it in the air. Amazing how the game turns around,. Bairstow dropped a catch just two overs ago and now he catches one and the match has turned around."

    Halfway house and New Zealand have 91 runs to get and the watchful Kane Williamson at the crease to get them there.

    Advantage England, but New Zealand still with cards on the table.

    A match-deciding over?

    It feels a bit like that.

    Luke Ronchi makes a rash decision to play a ramp shot to Ben Stokes' slower ball. There is not enough pace on the delivery to carry it both up and over wicketkeeper Jonny Bairstow who bags as he backpedals.

    Colin Munro with a big baseball swing. Very untidy and his furniture is rearranged by Ben Stokes' delivery that stayed low and took the top of off stump.

    Munro won't like that Feng Shui, The umpire is not too happy either. The stump is cracked and needs replacing.

  20. NZ 95-3 (target 192)published at 20:52 British Summer Time 23 June 2015

    A wicket and only seven runs. Much better for Adil Rashid.
