- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.5 very full again, just outside off stump, Rutherford tries to clear the stands again but finds long-off and that is reward for a good over with Rutherford not content to just play out the decent set, going for the big one, not timing it and finding the fielder for a comfortable catch 115/20.4 inside edge and caught behind Buttler goes to his right to take the catch and Rankin has his first wicket for England. It nipped back off the seam from a decent length, at 90mph too, and Franklin was very late on it and didn't move his feet either, little inside edge and well taken 1/115.5 McCullum gives himself room but receives a yorker that cleans him up. Excellent yorker from Wright, right in the blockhole, at the off stump, McCullum has shuffled away to open up the off side but got a delivery too good to hit and the entertainment ends 161/319.5 another full wide ball, swung at, straight up in the air and Bopara takes it well at point. Went high up and it swirled around in the air and Bopara had to judge it well and take it with two hands inverted dropping down onto one knee 200/4Extras17 (lb 6, w 11)TOTAL201/4 (20 Overs, RR: 10.05)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (James Franklin, 0.4 ov), 2-115 (Hamish Rutherford, 11.5 ov), 3-161 (Brendon McCullum, 15.5 ov), 4-200 (Tom Latham, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.4 fuller and straighter, yorker length and it runs off the pads onto the stumps. McCullum has fired it in at 60mph, Lumb tried to play straight but was deceived by some drift to leg, he was beaten and it runs off the boot onto middle and leg stumps 50/110.3 full toss on the stumps and slugged into the on side and finds deep midwicket. Hales showing his lack of form there, that should have gone out of park but he got it off the outer half of the bat and it fell easily for Franklin in the deep to take a simple chance, didn't have far to move 105/213.5 slapped outside off stump and caught at slip! I had no idea a slip was even in place! Why would you have a slip at this stage for? But Ross Taylor is in there and has held a blinder high to his right with one hand, a blinder of a catch from a thick top edge, just an outstanding take, got up so high and clung on, what a catch, what a move from McCullum, Morgan was cutting but it bounced a bit on him and he's gone 134/318.4 goes for another paddle, slower ball, misses, Bopara calls him through for a bye, Latham, with gloves on, throws, missed the striker's end but finds the non-striker's end and Buttler is short of his ground what a slice of luck, that happened at Cardiff too when New Zealand played Sri Lanka 184/5Extras13 (lb 8, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL196/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.8)Fall of wickets: 1-50 (Michael Lumb, 3.4 ov), 2-105 (Alex Hales, 10.3 ov), 3-134 (Eoin Morgan, 13.5 ov), 4-139 (Luke Wright, 14.6 ov), 5-184 (Jos Buttler, 18.4 ov)
