- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.5 inside-edge, and that's dragged onto the middle stump! Huge breakthrough ... he had a woeful time of it in the World Cup, but Guptill's levers can never be under-estimated. But that was the pure product of pressure. Had to make something happen, but had no width whatsoever to make it happen. A touch short, but arrow straight, and induces the error 6/15.6 chipped to midwicket! Morgan pouches a lollipop off a low full toss, and Munro cuts a frustrated figure as he troops off... he was just beginning to enjoy himself out there 39/213.1 loose full-toss, flogged high across the line, high on the bat, and swallowed in the deep! But will this be a no-ball? It's touch and go ... definitely dipping at the point of impact, about a metre outside the crease... and Seifert has to walk! Looked like a back-of-the-hander from Jordan, so was losing pace all the time. Tough, but just about fair I think 93/410.1 bottom of the bat, a thick outside edge... Vince steadies himself in the deep... and snaffles the breakthrough wicket! Rashid's cunning makes the difference, at a key moment too 72/319.3 pounded to cow corner, as Taylor fails to line up the cutter, and that's Brown's first international wicket! A big scalp too, as Jonny Bairstow stoops well to gather 149/5Extras4 (lb 3, w 1)TOTAL153/5 (20 Overs, RR: 7.65)Fall of wickets: 1-6 (Martin Guptill, 2.5 ov), 2-39 (Colin Munro, 5.6 ov), 3-72 (Colin de Grandhomme, 10.1 ov), 4-93 (Tim Seifert, 13.1 ov), 5-149 (Ross Taylor, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR9.5 in the air.... gone! Fantastic catch from Guptill! Drags his length back, Bairstow looks to slug it over midwicket but doesn't get all of it and Guptill takes a blinder diving to his left five yards off the fence! 68/25.4 uses his feet, Santner pulls his length back a touch and throws it wider. Malan looks to flay it away over long-off but can only spoon it up to third man off the outside edge, and Ish Sodhi isn't dropping that. New Zealand get the breakthrough! 37/115.2 spears in a length ball, a real half-tracker, and he whacks it straight down Guptill's throat! Vince is rightly furious with himself, but that's an excellent knock despite a tame ending 122/3Extras1 (w 1)TOTAL154/3 (18.3 Overs, RR: 8.32)Fall of wickets: 1-37 (Dawid Malan, 5.4 ov), 2-68 (Jonny Bairstow, 9.5 ov), 3-122 (James Vince, 15.2 ov)
