    Hmm, not great death bowling from Tom Curran, who looks a bit knackered from bowling five overs on the trot.

    Will he get his last?

    For now, it's Ben Stokes...

    This is very good and very sensible batting. It is very impressive work.

  3. NZ 214-8published at 48 overs

    Santner 57 off 47 balls

    Santner backs up that massive six with a delightful chip back down the ground for four and a scampered two from a miscue.

  4. 50 runs

    50 for Santnerpublished at 47.4 overs

    Mitchell Santner is proving to be England's unlikely nemesis with the bat in this series.

    The all-rounder brings up his maiden ODI fifty with an almighty six over square leg. Is he dragging his team into contention here?

  5. 6 runs

    NZ 201-8published at 47.2 overs

    They do bring up the fifty partnership and it's Lockie Ferguson who does it, pulling a nothing short ball from Tom Curran high over square leg.

    Impressive power, if not quite timed. That's the 200 up for the hosts too.

  6. NZ 195-8published at 47 overs

    No freebies on offer from Ben Stokes as the Kiwi pair resort to just three singles off the over.

    Lockie Ferguson continues to provide able support to Mitch Santner, though.

    This pair are closing in on a fifty partnership. It's been a vital contribution even if they don't get there.

  7. NZ 191-8published at 46 overs

    Santner 43, Ferguson 10

    Good work from Curran, starting his eighth over with three consecutive dot balls.

    Ferguson then turns it off his pads to fine leg for a single.

    Curran goes full for Santner, who can only pick up one down to wide mid-on before Ferguson defends the last.

  8. NZ 189-8published at 45 overs

    This pair continue to scurry and pick up the odd run here and there.

    That's four all at once though - Stokes sliding short and Santner clatters it through the covers.

    How far past 200 can New Zealand get?

    That was the easiest piece of fielding Jason Roy has had to deal with all day.

  10. NZ 182-8published at 44.2 overs

    Jason Roy is human/isn't Paul Collingwood after all.

    Mitch Santner drops and runs into off and Roy just has to pick up and lob the ball at the stumps to complete a simple run out.

    But Roy fumbles and the Kiwis scamper through.

  11. NZ 181-8published at 44.1 overs

    Oooh, that's a peach from Ben Stokes, drawing Mitch Santner into a play and miss outside off. Proper corridor of uncertainty stuff.

  12. NZ 181-8published at 44 overs

    Much better from Curran - tighter lines and length, mixing it up with his back-of-the-hand slower ball well.

    The result? Just two runs from the 44th over.

  13. NZ 179-8published at 43 overs

    Santner 34, Ferguson 7

    A good return from Stokes that is somewhat spoiled by a streaky toe edge from Santner that slides away for four.

  14. NZ 173-8published at 42.1 overs

    Jason Roy continues to do his best Paul Collingwood impression at backward point, making a fine one-handed diving stop to prevent a Mitch Santner cut shot racing to the fence.

  15. NZ 173-8published at 42 overs

    More ordinary stuff from Tom Curran. Not entirely sure he's the best man to be bowling here with Ben Stokes and David Willey still having plenty of overs.

    You don't want to give Tim Southee, Trent Boult and Mitch Santner even a hint of something to bowl at.

    Curran sends down yet another wide on height and New Zealand take eight from the over.

  16. NZ 165-8published at 41 overs

    Santner slog sweeps it away to the fence through a gap in the field.

    Rashid responds with just a single and a dot off the last two balls of a superb display, finishing with figures of 10-0-32-0.

    That's just 65 runs conceded off 20 overs of spin from England here, with Moeen taking two wickets.

  17. dropped catch

    Ferguson dropped on fourpublished at 40.1 overs

    Technically this is a drop but I'll admit it's a harsh use of the dropped catch graphic.

    Ferguson clips Rashid very, very fine down leg and the ball flicks the tips of Buttler's gloves before deflecting away for a single.

  18. NZ 159-8published at 40 overs

    Tom Curran returns for his fifth over and it's another mixed bag.

    A short-ish, wide-ish one is clubbed through the leg side for four by Santner before a high, looping bumper is called a wide.

    He then strays onto the pads but Santner can only pick up one as he finds the fielder on the fence with a square chip.

    Ten overs remaining for New Zealand - what total can this pair drag their side up to?

    This is a shellacking. Fantastic.

    Santner 15, Ferguson 3

    Adil Rashid continues in search of his first wicket. He's bowled superbly even if he doesn't manage one though.

    It's another tight, teasing over that Santner and Ferguson can only scrape two from.
