  1. NZ 200-1published at 27 overs

    Target 283

    Mark Wood's over ends with a dot ball as Devon Conway ducks under a bouncer.

    New Zealand need just 83 more to win.

  2. NZ 198-1published at 26.4 overs

    Target 283

    Short, wide and cracked away through point by Devon Conway.

    Mark Wood has gone for 53 after 4.4 overs. It's fair to say that pace on has not worked for England. Then again, neither has pace off.

    Conway is steering New Zealand towards an emphatic victory. It wouldn't be a shock, but most people had England to win.

    100 for Devon Conwaypublished at 26.1 overs

    NZ 193-1

    A gloved pull shot rolls down to fine leg and Devon Conway jogs through for the single to take him to his hundred!

    A brilliant innings from the New Zealand opener, he gets to three figures from 83 balls and raises his bat to the crowd before Rachin Ravindra arrives to give him a big hug.

    This tournament has the feeling of the 2013-14 England Ashes team all over it. A once great but now aging team hitting a bridge too far and unravelling spectacularly.

    Risbo from Farnborough

  6. NZ 191-1published at 26 overs

    Conway 99, Ravindra 90

    No fuss whatsoever from New Zealand so far. They take five from Adil Rashid's over and continue on their merry way.

    Devon Conway takes a single from the last, that moves him to 99 and he'll be on strike to face Mark Wood.

    See these lights? They are like a proper nightclub from the 1970s. The Bee Gees.

    Jon Hyde: Is this what Buttler meant by not defending the World Cup?

  10. NZ 187-1published at 25 overs

    Target 283

    Halfway through the innings, New Zealand need another 96 runs to win at just 3.74 an over.

    Devon Conway is two shy of his century, Rachin Ravindra is not far behind.

  11. NZ 186-1published at 24.4 overs

    Target 283

    Short ball from Mark Wood, it's taken on by Devon Conway and he completely mistimes it.

    It comes high off the bat and just over Sam Curran at mid-wicket. England's shortest fielder. Anyone else would likely have got a hand to it.

    As it is, the ball trickles away for four more.

    It's not how you start a World Cup like this, it's how you finish.

  13. NZ 178-1published at 24 overs

    Target 283

    Good over from Adil Rashid, who is finding a good amount of turn as he attacks the left-handers from round the wicket.

    Just two singles from it. Sadly for England, the time for trying to push up the required rate is over. They need wickets. Nine of them. Quickly.

    This is an absolute shellacking.

  15. NZ 176-1published at 23 overs

    Conway 91, Ravindra 84

    It's worth saying that even if England lose this game, which barring the most incredible of turnarounds they will, all is not lost.

    They've got another eight games to go and the TV cameras have just shown Ben Stokes, he'll be back soon enough so that's good.

    Admittedly, there have been fewer positives in this game.

    England are finding ways to concede boundaries. They can't build pressure.

    Target 283

    Sensational from Rachin Ravindra!

    He smashes the ball back over Chris Woakes' head for six with ease. Just a flick of the wrists, really, and the back leg flicks up as well.

    A shot of real flair from the left-hander.

    John Dunthorne: Not only is this going to be a loss, but a huge hit on net run-rate. England may have to win 7 out of next 8 to reach semi finals.

  19. NZ 168-1published at 22 overs

    Target 283

    Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra continue to find it very easy to work singles, effortlessly finding the gaps.

    Six more come from Adil Rashid's latest over, four singles and a two - that after a rare ugly shot from Ravindra towards cow corner.

    It's just been too easy for New Zealand. England gave them wickets with the ball and with the bat New Zealand have been able to take the game on.
