- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.6 back of a length, on off. Pulls behind square, but it's taken a top edge. Easy peasy for fine leg to gobble up! Guptill falls for 11 in 17 balls. 70/24.2 sliced in the air, and a smart diving catch from McCarthy! The Allen juggernaut ends at 35. Length ball, on off, and angling slightly across. Allen tries to smack it over the off side but ends up slicing it over the bowler's head. McCarthy runs from mid on to his left and gets the wicket for his bowler 44/114.2 bullseye! Fullish length ball on middle, Phillips backs away from leg stump for an almighty heave over midwicket and misses everything. The ball blasts middle stump 3/4 of the way up and uproots it out of the ground. 123/318.6 bounced out! Cramped him for room on the body with a well-directed short ball. Top edged pull swirls over Tucker before coming down into his gloves. 171/4Extras17 (lb 10, w 7)TOTAL179/4 (20 Overs, RR: 8.95)Fall of wickets: 1-44 (Finn Allen, 4.2 ov), 2-70 (Martin Guptill, 8.6 ov), 3-123 (Glenn Phillips, 14.2 ov), 4-171 (Daryl Mitchell, 18.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.6 in the air, and taken by mid off tracking to his right! Not full enough for Stirling to accurately loft it over mid off. The length ball bounces a little extra, and he's through the shot a bit late as well with Lockie's pace. Sliced, and Santner gobbles it up 23/15.5 full outside off stump. A bit wide, and he goes for an expansive drive by getting down on one knee. But the ball moves away slightly, and that is enough to take the outside edge 41/43.2 castled! Full just outside off, Delany offers no footwork and brings the bat in front to meet it. Through his defense, and the stumps are knocked back. First-ball duck for Gareth 24/24.1 full on middle and coming into his pads. Wants to play an on drive, but leading edge takes it to cover instead. Phillips runs in like a fox, picks up swiftly and takes an aim at the bowler's end! Direct hit, and the NZ players are celebrating. Yup - he's gone! 27/39.4 backs away from leg stump trying to create room to carve a good length ball on middle stump over the off side but a tame shot splices off a thick edge and flutters to Neesham at backward point for a simple catch at head height. 54/77.5 Keeper gets keeper! Full just outside off. Big stride forward, and tries to slog sweep. Misses, and the ball goes behind to the keeper. Tucker thinks he has hit it somewhere else and runs off for a run, realises its only gone to the keeper and tries to return, but by that time the bails are already on the floor 45/57.6 on a hat-trick next over! Fullish, outside off stump. Presses forward, trying to feel bat on ball. Delivery turns away, takes the outside edge, and the smart strategy of keeping a first slip pays off in a jiffy! 45/613.3 charges a full ball on middle, flicked high in the air toward deep midwicket, simple catch at chest height five yards in from the rope. 91/813.4 length ball on fourth stump, another big heave toward the leg side, another basic catch at chest height five yards inside the rope. Bracewell is on a hat-trick. 91/913.5 It's a hat-trick for Bracewell as Young slices a simple catch to backward point! Having his first bowl in T20Is, he takes three in his first five balls to end the match! Young could have left this alone. It was floated full on sixth stump, but he tries to attack and instead skews this fluttering comfortably to Sodhi on the ring. 91/10Extras4 (w 4)TOTAL91 all out (13.5 Overs, RR: 6.57)Fall of wickets: 1-23 (Paul Stirling, 2.6 ov), 2-24 (Gareth Delany, 3.2 ov), 3-27 (Harry Tector, 4.1 ov), 4-41 (Andy Balbirnie, 5.5 ov), 5-45 (Lorcan Tucker, 7.5 ov), 6-45 (George Dockrell, 7.6 ov), 7-54 (Curtis Campher, 9.4 ov), 8-91 (Mark Adair, 13.3 ov), 9-91 (Barry McCarthy, 13.4 ov), 10-91 (Craig Young, 13.5 ov)
