It's first blood to Kane Williamson. New Zealand win the toss and will bowl first. How important will that prove to be?
We'll hear from both captains shortly but the big news for England is that Sam Billings replaces Jason Roy in the side and Jonny Bairstow will open the batting.

Dave Foot: Bit anxious. Not gonna lie.
England's World Cup campaign has been hit with injuries. Pace bowler Tymal Mills played four games before being ruled out with a thigh strain.
And then in England's loss to South Africa, opener Jason Roy tore his left calf and will miss the remainder of the tournament.
So the big questions are: Who will replace Roy? And who will join Jos Buttler at the top of the order?
We'll find out shortly - the toss and team news are just moments away.
Good afternoon!
Fancy a World Cup semi-final? Oh, go on then!
