6.00pm All over, folks. The match has been called off and England win by 10 runs on D/L to take an unassailable 3-0 lead in the five-match series. Join us in a short while for the New Zealand-South Africa men's game, or whatever is left of it after the rain has its fun. For now, this is Avi SIngh signing off thanking you for being with us this afternoon.
5.55pm No official word yet but you'd have to think this game is finished as the rain is still coming down.
Mark: "A defeat for NZ here will be much more gutting than the previous games where they were hammered. Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. I cannot recall such an inept, clueless chase from any team in a long time."
All of a sudden the rain starts to really come down, and the players go off. Unlikely that we will get back on here given that the men's game begins in just over 90 minutes' time. Appears as though New Zealand are currently 10 runs behind on Duckworth-Lewis but we will only get that confirmation if the game is called off
