- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.3 holes out to long off! And Guptill's streaky innings ends at 24. Adair takes his pace off slightly with a full ball on middle and leg. Guptill comes down the track and tries to take the bowler on, but he loses one hand off the handle while playing it. Doesn't have the power, and Campher gets under it at long off 29/22.4 smacked hard - but picks out cover! Short and wide, angling across, Allen's eyes lit up and the flat-batted clatter goes straight to cover. Takes it at head height, not easy at all, especially when Dockrell's got his sunglasses on too 25/14.6 massive appeal, late raise of the finger from the umpire! Cleaver walks across to the off side again. Little bowls a length ball outside off. Cleaver tries to pull, but loses his balance while attempting it. Takes an under-edge to Tucker and that's NZ three down inside the powerplay 38/38.3 out next ball! Different batter, but Ireland will take 'em! Another short ball, another top-edge from the pull, and the keeper runs to his left to take this skyer with the shining sun adding to the difficulty 54/413.5 against the run of play! The part-timer induces the edge to Tucker, the keeper. Gets a length ball to angle across. Neesham tried to run it down fine with a poke outside off. Ends up giving Tucker a sharp catch 100/518.1 that's his third! And Bracewell is finally dismissed in NZ's tour of Ireland. The left-arm seamer bowls a full ball just outside off, and its a you-miss-I-hit moment. Bracewell tried to swing across the line on this occasion but a useful cameo for his side nonetheless 145/618.3 fourth wicket for Little! Short ball, pace off, wider outside off. Santner pulls anyway, and it's taken a big top edge to the fielder at deep backward square leg 147/719.1 Adair runs towards the square-leg umpire and takes a catch off his own bowling. A rising short delivery on off, and Sodhi uncomfortably swats to the leg side. Sliced shot, and the bowler called early for the catch 154/8Extras16 (lb 6, nb 1, w 9)TOTAL173/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8.65)Did not bat: JA DuffyFall of wickets: 1-25 (Finn Allen, 2.4 ov), 2-29 (Martin Guptill, 3.3 ov), 3-38 (Dane Cleaver, 4.6 ov), 4-54 (Daryl Mitchell, 8.3 ov), 5-100 (James Neesham, 13.5 ov), 6-145 (Michael Bracewell, 18.1 ov), 7-147 (Mitchell Santner, 18.3 ov), 8-154 (Ish Sodhi, 19.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.6 slower ball bouncer on fifth stump, Stirling backs away to carve this over cover but the lack of pace makes it a struggle and it comes off the toe fluttering to Phillips on the ring at extra cover. 33/32.5 spectacular catch by Santner backpedaling from mid-off on the ring! Full on middle and leg, Balbirnie backs away from leg stump trying to clear mid-off inside out and splices this fluttering high over the ring. Santner has 10 yards to cover to track back and is just able to get there in the end tumbling backwards while reaching behind his head to clasp on. 21/14.1 bullseye! Ferguson slips in a slower ball cutter on a good length that cuts in from fifth stump and crashes through the gap between bat and pad on a drive and it thuds into middle stump 3/4 of the way up. 32/25.3 short on off, slices this off a thick edge that carries to short third man a few yards inside the ring. Seemed like an innocuous ball and shot, but somehow there was enough juice off the thick edge to carry to Sodhi tumbling forward. 37/412.1 yorker on middle, Campher tries a reverse ramp and misses, struck on the toe, stone dead lbw. Campher starts walking off but then signals for DRS. This is hopeless. Now he continues walking off before the ball-tracking is even shown on screen and is at the boundary rope before ball-tracking finally is displayed for all to see. Hit in front of middle, ripping out middle just above the base of the stumps. Ireland lose a review. 96/79.2 sucker ball floated short on the wide guideline spinning further wide upon pitching. It hung in the air forever. Tucker made like he wasn't going to play a shot and would accept a wide after shuffling across his stumps, but then decides very late to have a swat at it and feathers a thin edge held onto by Cleaver. A peculiar delivery that will make club cricketers worldwide harbor dreams of an international debut down the road. 69/511.4 drags down a half-tracker seeing Dockrell on the charge, he's beaten in flight and continues with the shot anyway but miscues a flat bat shot to long-on. Ferguson takes a chest high catch 10 yards in from the rope. 93/616.5 slower ball at 105 kph lands short on the stumps, heaves a pull out to deep midwicket, Phillips takes a simple catch at waist height 10 yards in from the rope. 133/916.2 bouncer on middle, pull swirls off a top edge over short fine leg. Sodhi gets in position running back from the ring 15 yards to take a difficult but sharp catch over the shoulder. 131/818.2 bouncer down the leg side, Young flinches trying to get out of the way but there's a sound and an appeal upheld for caught behind down the leg side. Young takes 10 seconds before calling for DRS. Might as well since he's the last wicket. Ultraedge confirms there was glove on this. Game over. New Zealand win by 31 runs. 142/10Extras12 (nb 1, w 11)TOTAL142 all out (18.2 Overs, RR: 7.74)Fall of wickets: 1-21 (Andy Balbirnie, 2.5 ov), 2-32 (Gareth Delany, 4.1 ov), 3-33 (Paul Stirling, 4.6 ov), 4-37 (Harry Tector, 5.3 ov), 5-69 (Lorcan Tucker, 9.2 ov), 6-93 (George Dockrell, 11.4 ov), 7-96 (Curtis Campher, 12.1 ov), 8-131 (Barry McCarthy, 16.2 ov), 9-133 (Mark Adair, 16.5 ov), 10-142 (Craig Young, 18.2 ov)
