    There's a huge cheer from the Edgbaston crowd as man-of-the-moment Harry Brook strides out to the middle.

    No pressure, Harry.

    That was hit out or get out, and he's got out. It's not just the two Malan scored, it's the nine dot balls he faced. It puts more pressure on England.

    Malan c Conway b Southee (Eng 26-2)

    The pressure tells and Malan goes!

    He just never got going this innings. He departs playing a loose one-handed drive that slices straight to Devon Conway on the deep cover boundary.

    Two runs from Mitchell Santner's first over. He's got a good head to head against this pair. He's got Malan out three times for 73 runs, and Bairstow out three times for 46.

    That great bit of fielding from Phillips means birthday boy Dawid Malan is on just two from eight balls.

    Pressure building.

  6. Eng 24-1published at 4.3 overs

    That's brilliant fielding from Glenn Phillips.

    Dawid Malan powers a Mitchell Santner delivery to the mid-wicket boundary for what looks a certain six, but Phillips catches the ball as he is falling over the rope and throws the ball back into play, restricting England to just a single.

    England are about 10 runs behind the game at the moment but if you think of the batters still to come, it is one of the things about this side. They have incredible depth with the bat.

    Matt Henry is right, that Matt Henry is a good bowler. He has gone for just nine runs from his first two overs.

    England slipping behind the rate already. Luckily for them there's plenty of batting firepower to come.

    It is Dawid Malan's birthday today and he is the first man to play a T20 international for England on their birthday in 10 years.

    To set a record for the highest score by an England man in a T20 on his birthday he'll need to score 18 or more.

    I have a birthday spreadsheet!

    Dawid Malan is the new batter and Zaltz has a corker of a stat involving him coming up...

    Will Jack was just trying to overhit that. It was almost like a thick leading edge.

    Jacks c Chapman b Jamieson 11 (Eng 17-1)

    Will Jacks goes next ball!

    The England man tries to hit it back over mid-on but it catches a leading edge and flies to Mark Chapman on the deep cover boundary.

    A brilliant start for New Zealand.

    Kyle Jamieson will give you a little bit of extra bounce and Will Jacks has just used it for that boundary.

    Will Jacks through the kitchen sink at that.

    That will make England feel a bit better.

    Kyle Jamieson offers Will Jacks a bit of width and he pounces, playing a lovely cut shot away for four.

    I'm really excited about Kyle Jamieson's return, he was a star before his back injury. I'm looking forward to seeing how he comes back and what impact he can make because it has been a tough couple of games.

  18. Eng 12-0published at 2 overs

    Just the three singles and a leg bye from Matt Henry's first over. New Zealand will be delighted with that. England have yet to get going.

    The huge towering figure of Kyle Jamieson will bowl next up for the tourists.
