    11.2 goes down the ground, but finds long-on! Didn't get the connection this time, dragging across the line, and Mitchell runs around the rope to take a flat strike. Excellent knock from YJB, but a big wicket for NZ to take at this stage of the innings 105/2
    6.4 quicker and flatter, takes the edge! Seifert couldn't hold it initially but grabs the ball at the second attempt - and Jacks knew he'd got a feather on it as he went to cut. Sodhi breaks through and Jacks walks off having failed to capitalise on a start once again 65/1
    15.2 over the wicket to Malan, who plants the front dog, and picks out deep backward square leg! Flat length and swung away without timing, well held by the diving Kyle Jamieson coming in off the rope. Malan's sketchy effort comes to an end, spin again doing the job for NZ 138/4
    13.4 dragged down... but Brook holes out! Goes for the short boundary, mowing across the line, but doesn't get hold of it at all. Plenty of height but no trousers as Chapman circles under it at deep square leg. Malan NZ can breathe easy 126/3
    19.6 full and wide, nailed to extra cover! Livingstone finally connects with one, but sends it straight into Southee's bread basket! Henry finishes off a brilliant final over, which cost just four runs and resulted in two wickets falling 175/8
    15.6 slog-sweeps to the man in the deep, Santner strikes again! Stretches out to hit around his front pad, again going to the longer side of the ground and the ball picks out Glenn Phillips, this time, who tumbles to his left to take a good catch. Santner's 100th wicket in T20Is, too 140/5
    17.2 skips down and swings for the hills... held at long-on! Looked like a clean strike from Curran but didn't have enough in the end, again hitting to the longer side. Allen circled around and pouched the catch above his head, before steadying himself inside the rope and just tossing it up while he put his left foot out of bounds. Deftly done 150/6
    19.3 dug out back to the bowler, and Rehan has to sacrifice himself! Superbly bowled, right up in the blockhole and he can only chop down to keep the ball out. Henry collects and turns to complete the run out with Livingstone already a long way down looking for the strike 172/7

    1.5 Timber! Good length, swing into the right hander and clips the top of off. Allen looks to the heavens, rueing the hack across the line... 22/1
    8.1 Air Rehan! Seifert goes! Good length, the Kiwi tries to work down the ground but is too early and gives Rehan the chance to dive for the cameras to complete the dismissal 83/3
    6.2 Huge error from Mitchell! Short of a length, bit of turn, allowing Seifert room to cut... oooo run out? Luke Wood, gun outfielder, does superbly to field, spin around to his left side and throw to the nonstriker's end. Rehan gathers cleanly, removes the bails and Mitchell is gone! 75/2
    13.6 "Ah you..." Phillips admonishes himself as he skews a short delivery high but not far enough to the midwicket fence. Curran takes a simple catch to bring to an end a fine innings that should have this won for the Blackcaps. They require 35 from 36... 141/4
