Jack Skelton, Tom Rostance and Matthew Henry

  1. Hats off to third umpire Rod Tucker there, who punctuated the tension with a wonderfully informal "show me what you've got Kev" as he cued up the video replay...

  2. Isa Guha
    Ex-England seamer on BBC Test Match Special

    It's a clean catch. New Zealand have been outstanding in this tournament in the field.

  3. OUT!

    That was clean as you like! A great catch by Lockie Ferguson running in from deep point.

    England are rocking.

  4. Jimmy Neesham has struck with his first ball - IF this catch carried...

  5. wicket

    WICKET

    Morgan c Ferguson b Neesham 9 (Eng 86-3)

    Has he caught that?!

  6. Eng 86-3

    Target 242

    This is wonderfully horrible. A near-silent, almost palpable sense of tension.

    England's men aren't used to winning finals in team sports. And it's showing.

  7. How's stat?!

    Andy Zaltzman
    Test Match Special statistician

    That's the first boundary off De Grandhomme, with his 39th delivery.

  8. Stephan Shemilt
    BBC Sport at Lord's

    Rumours are that Trevor Bayliss is anxious enough to adjust his floppy hat.

  9. Get Involved

    #bbccricket

    Andy White: Hoping for a power cut and my phone to die. Would rather be in the dark about what happens rather than this torture.

  10. Eng 86-3

    England look like they are batting on a blancmange. They can't trust any bounce or pace.

    But there's a much-needed four! Ben Stokes comes down the pitch to the big man and pulls him hard for four.

  11. Just when you thought it was safe to go out into the middle...

  12. Cue up the Jaws theme.

  13. Stephan Shemilt
    BBC Sport at Lord's

    The dance music being played in between overs is so incongruous with the tension inside Lord's. Can they play some waterfall sounds? Or waves hitting the shore? Maybe light some scented candles.

  14. Isa Guha
    Ex-England seamer on BBC Test Match Special

    Useful runs for England.

  15. Eng 82-3

    Target 242

    England will take them in extras! Give sundries an MBE.

    Another snorter of a bouncer, too much on that one though as it lobs the keeper and runs away for four.

  16. From the press box

  17. James Anderson
    England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    That was rapid.

  18. Eng 77-3

    Umpire Kumar Dharmasena comes down the track after that bouncer - it just kissed the top of the helmet of the England captain. He's fine.

  19. Eng 75-3

    Dot, dot, dot. These two are intent on hanging around for now and then going later. But they can't stick too long...

    That's a snorter from Lockie Ferguson, fast and short, forcing Morgan to dive out of the way!

  20. Michael Vaughan
    Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    De Grandhomme might get 10 overs on the trot here.
