Sheldon Cottrell: [Did you enjoy that?] Most definitely. Every time I step out, I enjoy it to the fullest. I was surprised myself (at the swing) but when I saw it swinging, I bowled full. Most definitely (makes me dangerous when it is swinging). I'm a bowler when it's swinging, I like to pitch it up. I'm dangerous. We're good as a unit, we just enjoy everything we do. 291 is a reasonable total. We have to be careful. It's not a wicket you can blast away on.
5:26pm An innings almost completely made up of two players. Sheldon Cottrell and Kane Williamson both stamped their names all over this match, almost literally from the moment it began. 148 out of the 291 for Williamson, an innings of characteristic craft, and involvement in seven out of eight dismissals from Cottrell. What an amazing World Cup he is having. You've got to believe that New Zealand have the upper hand right now though. 291 is a good score here.
