    Driven for six! Yes, you heard that right - driven for six. Danni Wyatt is really angry at those flats, it seems.

  2. Eng 318-5published at 48 overs

    Hello! Those flats are in danger again as Dani Wyatt smashes Hayley Jensen over the cover boundary for six!

  3. Eng 312-5published at 47-4 overs

    That's lovely.

    A deft late cut from Dani Wyatt and the ball disappears to the deep third boundary.

    This is the first time that England's batting line-up has clicked and worked right in the way they want it to. And they've done it with their talisman, their captain Heather Knight, getting a duck.

  5. Eng 307-5published at 47.1 overs

    England making hay.

    Sophia Dunkley takes a big stride forward before dispatching the ball through long-on for four.

    There is now a hunt on for the ball.

    Luckily, a spectator manages to find it hidden in a garden in front of the flats.

    That was a merciless shot of sheer brutality from Danni Wyatt.

  8. Eng 303-5published at 47 overs

    THAT IS HUGE!

    Sophie Devine bangs it in short but Danni Wyatt simply powers a pull over the midwicket boundary for a six - the ball nearly took out one of the windows in the flats overlooking the ground!

    This is now England's highest ever score against New Zealand.

  10. Eng 296-5published at 46.2 overs

    Sophia Dunkley carves Sophie Devine's first delivery through midwicket for four.

    The next shot is much cleaner, driven back over the bowlers head for another boundary.

    No need to run for that.

    Variations and pace off have been the key on this wicket today. I think Leigh Kasperek could have been a handful on it.

  12. Eng 286-4published at 45.3

    That's a lovely shot from Danni Wyatt.

    It's short and wide from Hayley Jensen but Wyatt has to time the perfectly as she uppercuts through point for four.

    This is the moment of the match as Tammy Beaumont reaches her century to rapturous applause form her home crowd.

    That will ease the nerves for Sophia Dunkley. She's been a bit scratchy so far but England are certainly eyeing up the 300 now.

  15. Eng 280-5published at 45 overs

    Sophia Dunkley takes advantage now though. It's short and wide from Lea Tahuhu and Dunkley pulls for four between the square and fine leg fielders.

  16. Eng 274-5published at 44.2 overs

    Sophia Dunkley is desperate to take advantage of the free hit but mis-times a cross-bated swipe and Lea Tahuhu collects.

    New Zealand escape.

  17. Eng 274-5published at 441. overs

    A front-foot no ball from Lea Tahuhu - a big one as well.

    Free hit coming up.

    There's real last-day-of-school vibes here today, but New Zealand are looking as if they walked out around a week ago.

  19. Eng 269-5published at 44 overs

    The ball before Beaumont's dismissal there was ANOTHER drop. Molly Penfold dropping Sophia Dunkley at backward point.
