    England supporters at Lord’s torn between the horror of early wickets and attendant panic and the strange comforting familiarity of feeling terrified watching England bat.

  3. Eng 39-1

    Blimey. Joe Root comes within a whisker of edging one through to the keeper. Matt Henry is on it.

    Charlie Johnston: Think Ferguson will be key for NZ. Like Plunkett takes plenty of wickets in the middle overs. Great pace and could be set for a good battle against Morgan if/when he comes in.

  5. Eng 39-1

    Need 203 more runs to win

    How are you all coping?

    Thumbs up for OK. Thumbs down for a shuddering nervous wreck.

  6. Eng 39-1

    Better from Bairstow. He puts away a rare bad ball from Boult, pulling it off his hip for four.

    These pitches require craft.There's been movement, particularly from Matt Henry. He's got it to go both ways. If anything Trent Boult has been a little full. There is always the temptation for a swing bowler to pitch it up for the first few overs. It will still swing if you pull it back a few feet.

  8. Eng 35-1

    Jonny Bairstow looks like he wants to whack it but the bowling is too good and conditions too tricky. This one is nowhere near the middle of the bat.

  9. Not to be for Jason Roy today...

  10. Phil Tufnell
    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    If you think you are 20-30 runs short of a target this is the sort of opening bowling you want from your side. They have come out and put the ball straight on the spot every time.

    Bairstow 14, Root 1

    More Kiwi hands are thrown onto their Black Caps. Matt Henry beats Jonny Bairstow again outside off with another ripper than moves in the air.

    There are people on the top of a building behind one of the stands at Lord's. Everyone is doing all they can to watch this thrilling finale.

    Just one from the over.

    Sebastian Clare: This is both wonderfully enthralling and horribly agonising. These two teams are worthy winners, but there can only be one...Please let it be England!

  13. Eng 34-1

    Joe Root gets off the mark with one of the uglier singles he's scored in this World Cup. England look like they want to come down the pitch to these bowlers.

    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    Twelve months ago if England were chasing 242 you'd think they'll do that in 25 overs!

    Samuel Obbard: Just let out a massive OH NO in response to Roy's wicket... May or may not have been right as a customer took their food... Oops.

    Target 242

    Is there anyone in the country who isn't gripped to a TV screen in their living room at the moment, heart thumping in their chest?

    Even non-cricket fans - the crazy people out there - have a fine Wimbledon final to watch.

  17. Eng 33-1

    Jonny Bairstow looks utterly focussed. He punches to mid-on and knows he has beaten the fielder. He strides down and punches gloves with Joe Root without changing his expression.

    He's in the zone.

  18. WORM UPDATE

    CAN WE HAVE A WORM PLEASE WHY HAVEN'T WE HAD A WORM YET.

    Relax Mark.

    After six overs England were 28-1, New Zealand were 28-0...

    Trent Boult is continuing but gets this one wrong. It's a wide. The ball swung again mind.

    Joel Coady: Root is going to be the key to this chase. Cannot afford to lose him early here.
