    That's England's second-best powerplay of the series. They were 59-1 in the second ODI, they went on to make 241 all out.

    Nice bit of movement in the air there for Hannah Rowe, just shaping away from Winfeld-Hill.

    She has started really well, picking up where she left off in the previous ODI.

  3. Eng 55-0published at 10 overs

    Hannah Rowe is in to the attack. She was the star with the ball for New Zealand in the fourth ODI, taking 4-47.

    They need something similar from her today and she starts well with a maiden.

    Still though, England are off to a flier and the powerplay certainly belongs to them.

    That's back-to-back 50 partnerships now for Tammy Beaumont and Lauren Winfield-Hill.

    Winfield-Hill has now been put down on 5, 14 and now 24.

  6. Eng 55-0published at 9 overs

    And just to make things worse, Tammy Beaumont hits Molly Penfold for consecutive fours, one stroked through midwicket and another pulled past square leg.

    Authoritative.

    That was a pretty straightforward one, straight to the wicketkeeper.

    As much as I'd love to join in on the sandwich discussion, it's probably more important to say that Lauren Winfield-Hill has been dropped for the third time.

    Loose drive (again), outside edge and dropped (again), this time by Katey Martin behind the stumps.

    I love the fact that the Earl of Sandwich took a few bits of bread, put some meat in the middle and thought 'good grief this is extraordinary, I'm going to call it the sandwich'.

    I love a sandwich - underrated?

  11. Eng 45-0published at 8 overs

    New Zealand aren't making the most of the new ball and the conditions. There's been wides, no-balls, dropped catches and England have capitalised.

    It's been very, very positive from England, it's so good to see.

    They are playing their shots but defending the ball when needed.

  13. Eng 40-0published at 7 overs

    Winfield-Hill 23, Beaumont 14

    And she thumps the free hit over the ropes for four runs!

    Not the start that Molly Penfold would've wanted.

    That's not so much a full toss but a beamer, accidental though I'm sure.

  15. Eng 35-0published at 6.3 overs

    Molly Penfold is into the attack. The 20-year-old impressed on her international debut in the third ODI, taking two wickets with her raw pace.

    Winfield-Hill's luck continues as she plays and misses outside off stump that just goes past her outside edge.

    Next ball, Penfold delivers a vicious full toss above waist height, gifting her a free hit!

    Lauren Down, a little bit of nominative determinism today.

    Oh no, Lauren Down is such a good fielder there at point. We talk about being out of rhythm as a batter, but she seems out of rhythm as a fielder.

    Eng 33-0

    Oh, another one (Lauren) down.

    This one is harder but still, she gets two hands to it at backward point again and should definitely have been taken.

    Is it Winfield-Hill's day? She's certainly having the better day of the two Laurens at the moment.
