    It has been a classy knock - he has shown all his experience and ability and played perfectly to the situation.

  2. 100 runs

    100 for Talyorpublished at 42 overs

    That's a century for Ross Taylor - his 18th in ODIs. He crunches a cut and scampers back for two as Moeen Ali loses his footing. He will be desperate to see his side home from this point but that run-rate is climbing.

    England said Ben Stokes would not bowl his full quota of overs - so does Eoin Morgan have a dilemma on his hands? 100% you keep him going.

    NZ need 70 off 8 overs

    Could Ross Taylor end up running out of partners here? A good over from Ben Stokes.

    There's something about some cricketers - and it's that some blokes make things happen. Tom Curran has got that and Ben Stokes has got that.

    Unbelievable from Stokes. That's an exceptional slower ball out of the back of the hand. England have clawed their way back into this game and it's that man again - Ben Stokes.

  7. wicket

    De Grandhomme c Buttler b Stokes 2 (NZ 215-6)

    Ben Stokes has swung this back England's way. Jos Buttler fluffs a run out chance as Colin de Grandhomme scrambles back for a second run. But De Grandhomme swings wildly and edges the ball into the gloves of a relieved Buttler.

    New Zealand have lost three wickets for 10 runs.

    It's difficult to know who's in the ascendancy.

    Colin de Grandhomme joins Ross Taylor at the crease and the pair scramble four runs off Tom Curran's next four deliveries.

    It's not the man they would desperately want, but it's two quick wickets.

    It's a well-deserved wicket for Tom Curran, and a good catch by Jason Roy - low and sharp.

  12. wicket

    Nicholls c Roy b Curran 0 (NZ 206-5)

    England right back in this now. Henry Nicholls has been padded up since the 10th over and has lasted just two balls. He leans back and slices a drive off Tom Curran to Jason Roy, who takes a smart catch at backward point.

    Target 285

    It was a slightly fortunate dismissal but that has got Ben Stokes' blood pumping.

    You could hear the passion in Ben Stokes' voice when he took that wicket. That is why England have missed him. But it has been a phenomenal partnership. Latham timed the ball as well as anybody today.

    Latham c Root b Stokes 79 (NZ 205-4)

    A tiring Tom Latham departs to a soft dismissal. He miscues a pull and Ben Stokes and Joe Root dives forward to take the catch at mid-on.

    That was the opportunity - that was the chance England wanted. They couldn't grasp it.

    Latham has been deceived by the slower ball. Jonny originally took his eye off the ball to see if Moeen Ali was going to try and catch it, and he misjudged it. He had plenty of time to get under it. That is not going to help frustrations.

  18. NZ 203-3published at 39 overs

    Latham 79 , Taylor 93

    New Zealand pass 200. Ross Taylor edging closer to his 18th ODI century.

    Tom Latham whacks one high in the air off Tom Curran but Jonny Bairstow at deep square-leg struggles to pick it up in the lights and spills the catch.

    Things are just starting to boil over out there - tensions are certainly rising. We've seen a few people muttering things to each other. These are the times when everything needs to be tight.
