  1. NZ 164-7

    Need 15 runs to win

    Lea Tahuhu has had enough of defending. She launches Kate Cross straight down the ground for four.

  2. Alison Mitchell
    BBC Test Match Special

    It feels like it should be simple equation, but it has felt like that for the whole innings and it hasn't been like that.

  3. NZ 160-7

    Need 19 runs to win

    Charlie Dean is the next bowler to finish her 10 allocated overs, with a very respectable 1-38.

    New Zealand have to win from here, surely. If they don't win this, from being in so many totally dominant positions, there isn't much hope.

  4. Alex Hartley
    England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    Katherine Brunt has had a brilliant game. She is honestly like a fine wine.

  5. NZ 158-7

    Need 21 runs to win

    Lea Tahuhu - who can certainly whack a few - is the new batter.

    Katherine Brunt receives plenty of hugs and taps on the back from her teammates as she finishes her 10 overs with figures of 4-22.

    With herself and Tahuhu earlier for New Zealand, we've been treated to two stunning spells of bowling today from two greats.

  6. Phil Long
    BBC Test Match Special statistician

    Alex Hartley and I have had an absolute howler there.

  7. Alison Mitchell
    BBC Test Match Special

    Well, what do you know? Hayley Jensen is not very happy about that.

    WICKET

    Jensen lbw b Brunt 2 (NZ 158-7)

    Wow. What a moment.

    The third umpire says he has no conclusive evidence to say whether it was bat or pad first, even though there was a huge edge, so he can't overrule the on field decision.

    Hayley Jensen is fuming.

  9. Alex Hartley
    England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    It could go from being a howler to an absolutely sensational decision from Sue Redfern.

  10. Phil Long
    BBC Test Match Special statistician

    Oh wait, they are trying to decide if it hit the pad first.

  11. Alex Hartley
    England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    I mean she's absolutely smashed it...

    It is a poor decision from the umpire. It just shows how important it is to have those reviews in hand.

  12. Hayley Jensen looks very relaxed. She shares a laugh and a fist bump with Maddy Green as they wait.

    She must know she's hit it?

  13. Alison Mitchell
    BBC Test Match Special

    Hayley Jensen reviewed that immediately...

  14. New Zealand review

    Katherine Brunt has another! Well. It's given out on the field and looks very close.

    Hayley Jensen sends it upstairs.

  15. Alex Hartley
    England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    New Zealand just need to keep calm and keep taking the easy option and not give their wicket away.

    You never know with New Zealand though, a couple of quick wickets and they could panic.

  16. NZ 157-6

    Need 22 runs to win

    Another decent over from Charlie Dean goes for just three runs. New Zealand don't exactly need boundaries, but a few of them would just help ease a few nerves.

  17. NZ 154-6

    Need 25 runs to win

    No wickets from this one and she even bowls a wide. Sort it out, Katherine.

  18. Now here's a key moment in the game. Katherine Brunt is back to bowl her final two overs. She currently has figures of 3-18.

  19. Maddy Green now has 63 and how badly do New Zealand need her to stay there.

  20. Georgia Elwiss
    England all-rounder on BBC Test Match Special

    You can sense that something is going to happen in this game - the crowd are clapping every dot ball and really getting behind England.

    One more wicket and you'd start thinking 'could the unthinkable happen?'.
