    There's been real commitment in the field from Pakistan today. They look real sharp.

  3. NZ 100-5

    De Grandhomme 11, Neesham 25

    Hundred up! No team has made it look harder work to reach triple figures in this tournament. Pakistan's bowling and this pitch have made life very hard indeed for the men in black.

  4. NZ 97-5

    Imad Wasim is coming on, some slow left arm tweak coming up.

  5. Drinks break

    That's drinks, by the way. Bovril the order of the day - it still looks absolutely freezing out there.

  6. Get Involved

    Both these teams' strengths are fully in their bowling attacks. This game is not done, In these conditions I can't see Pakistan chasing 150 against Boult, Ferguson and Henry

    Lewis

    New Zealand v Australia and India v Pakistan in the semi finals would be an exciting consolation prize for England getting knocked out.

  7. Andy Zaltzman
    Test Match Special statistician

    New Zealand's score of 94-5 after 30 overs is comfortably the lowest score at that stage so far in this tournament.

    Sarfaraz is very aware today, that was good captaincy to change the field and try make De Grandhomme play to leg.

  9. NZ 97-5

    How many lives has Colin de Grandhomme got?! More than Sonic. He slashes a leading edge which lands a foot in front of the fielder at fine leg before being beaten by a leg break which rags square.

  10. NZ 97-5

    A leg slip in for Shadab, adding to the Test match feel. A reminder that a Pakistan win today means that they could well end up overtaking England for a top-four finish.

  11. NZ 94-5

    Before the tournament there was talk of teams scoring 500 - turns out this sort of cricket is far more riveting. New Zealand absolutely clinging on.

    Ex-New Zealand captain on BBC Test Match Special

    Tight. Tight. Tight.

  13. Not out

    Booooooooooos ring out as the decision is made. Colin breathes a sigh of relief. That was such a good throw!

  14. Natalie Germanos
    BBC Test Match Special

    The Pakistan fans and players have started celebrating.

  15. If he's safe he's safe by millimetres...

  16. Jeremy Coney
    Ex-New Zealand captain on BBC Test Match Special

    This is so close.

  17. This is CLOSE! Frame by frame close.

  18. Natalie Germanos
    BBC Test Match Special

    I think he's made it home despite the fact he made a wavey run home.

  19. Umpire review

    Colin de Grandhomme plays and misses again and then takes a single, the stumps are flattened by a cannon throw and that's close!

  20. Andy Zaltzman
    Test Match Special statistician

    That's the first genuine boundary, forgetting that Kane Williamson inside edge, since the eighth over.
