  1. 127-2published at 26 overs

    Thanks Marc! And it is as you were with Amy Jones heaving the first ball of the over, halfway down the track, past square leg for four.

    But hang on, Suzie Bates deflects a drive from Heather Knight onto the stumps at the non-striker's end. It's close, but Amy Jones swivels around and just gets her bat down in time.

  2. Eng 120-2published at 25 overs

    The television cameras pick out England head coach Mark Robinson deep in conversation with England World T20 winner Michael Lumb. The former Notts batsman is currently advising the people who are putting together the new 100 ball competition. Anyway, as England reach 120-2, it's time for me to move aside and welcome Tim Oscroft to the crease for his cricket live text debut.

    Be good to him.

    Captain Heather Knight joins Amy Jones at the crease as New Zealand captain Suzie Bates brings herself into the attack.

    She'll need to provide Jones with the support Beaumont provided before being dismissed...

    This is a typical Lee Kasperek wicket, she takes the pace off the ball. Lauren Winfield came down the wicket, but the ball wasn't quite there. Great catch by Maddie Green.

    Winfield c Green b Kasperek 5 (Eng 114-2)

    Another one goes! Lauren Winfield chips into the leg side and falls victim to Maddy Green's diving catch just in from the rope.

    Amy Jones' third ODI fifty, she made 63 at Leeds and her highest score was 94 in Nagpur in the winter just gone.

    Amy Jones brings up her second half-century of the series. It's been a good knock - the odd classical drive back past the bowler interspersed with mroe violent hacks over the infield.

    And a few minutes later...

    David Wallace: Oops! Did I just jinx Tammy Beaumont?

    Congrats David - the 'Curse of the Commentator' trophy is yours!

    Some of Amelia Kerr's deliveries are 39mph. She's a canny bowler though, conceding just singles in the main. Lauren Winfield has joined Amy Jones at the crease.

  10. 'An innocuous end for Beaumont'published at 15:23 British Summer Time 13 July 2018

    Quite an innocuous dismissal, it was too full to generate any pace on the ball.

    This, by the way, has been the shot of the day for me so far (from Amy Jones). I doff my cap to anyone who can play straight drives like this...

    The temperature may have dropped a degree or two over the past few days, but the sun at Grace Road remains fierce, tempered only by a cooling breeze. I've just made the mistake of putting my hand flat on a black table top and lost a couple of layers of skin.

    Beaumont c Martin b Kasperek 53 (Eng 104-1)

    Oh no, Tammy!

    Her strength becomes her weakness. Going for one reverse-sweep too many, she gloves a simple, looping catch into the air which is pouched easily by New Zealand wicketkeeper Katey Martin.

    That's the fourth time Tammy Beaumont has gone past 50 in ODIs this summer.

  15. 50 runs

    50 for Beaumontpublished at 20 overs

    Eng 102-0

    There's no stopping Tammy here. I'd wager she's on for a century after bring up her fifty with another boundary. She averages 53 against New Zealand, who must be sick of the sight of her this summer.

  16. Eng 93-0published at 19 overs

    Jones 43, Beaumont 46

    Dismissive! Tammy Beaumont opens her shoulders and chips four through the leg side. She's motoring now. New Zealand's fielders are looking around for inspiration. There's none forthcoming so far. They say, in situations like this, a good piece of fielding can pull things around. Who is willing to step up for the White Ferns?

  17. Eng 86-0published at 18 overs

    Drinks break over and done with, but no break in the pattern as England continue to tick over relentlessly. The ball flies off Tammy Beaumont's toe past Jess Watkin's left hand at slip, but it's a decent over from Amelia Kerr.

  18. Eng 82-0published at 17 overs

    Tammy Beaumont, once again, uses her feet to run down the wicket at Holly Huddlestone and take two through the off side. She removed her bottom hand from the bat, otherwise it might have been double that. Anyway, time for drinks. England well on top.

  19. Eng 78-0published at 16 overs

    Amelia Kerr bowls with a towel flapping from the back of her trousers. For a leg-spinner, her career economy rate of 4.01 is very creditable. She's miserly without being threatening once again - another single added to the score.

  20. Eng 77-0published at 15 overs

    Jones 40, Beaumont 33

    Nice! Amy Jones gets the on-drive out to dispatch Holly Huddleston to the boundary. A dreamy shot. Here's another of Jones' best shots from a little earlier...
