    2.1 fantastic catch by Santner at extra cover! He nabbed that like a hungry man goes searching for food. Santner leapt high with his left hand up, and got it stuck even as he tumbled back on the ground. Bairstow looked to clip this length delivery on middle stump, but perhaps the closed the face of the bat a bit too early 6/1
    7.2 taken by mid-on backpedalling! Another leading edge from an England batter today - is this a hint of the slowness of the pitch? - as this ball ballooned up for Allen to grab it close to his chest. This was angled in, and was a length ball which ended on middle and leg. Again Brook to flick, but perhaps did so a bit too early 28/4
    2.3 appeal for leg before wicket, and it's given! Root has a chat with Brook for a potential review, only to walk back. Looked to me like it was sliding down the leg side, but who knows? Scratch that, of course I'm not an umpire. Boult went for the length delivery on middle stump, angling it into Root. The ball rightly moved back in to strike Root on his front pad, as he missed his attempted flick. Replays show the middle of leg stump would have been thrashed 6/2
    4.2 Boult has three! His figures read 3 for 1 at the moment, as Stokes gives it away. Once again he skipped down the pitch, as Boult bowled on a length around the middle and off stumps. He went lofting, but it was hardly timed, as the ball was spooned to mid-off 8/3
    12.1 dragged on! Santner knows he got lucky there, as his face tells. Hint of the ball sticking on the surface before coming on to the batter. The ball was short and outside off, as Buttler went slashing at it away from his body. Not sure if he did that too early though, because it took the bottom edge and ended up hitting the leg stump 55/5
    20.3 skewed to point, stunning grab from Phillips! Moeen made room once more, slammed the bat across another short ball, high on the blade. Phillips sights it early, sprints from backward point, leaps like a rampant salmon and clings on very well, winding himself in the process 103/6

    33.2 a shimmy at the pitch, looking to dink the angle over the keeper. But Southee follows him well, full length outside off, Curran's leg-side scoop ends up as a readjusted nudge over the off-side instead, and short third pockets a simple catch 215/7

    0.2 bowled him next ball! They burned a review last delivery, but have got Allen this time. The middle stump was pushed back, and Allen is gone for a duck. This was on a length, and pitched around middle stump. It straightened after pitching, and again went through Allen's attempted defence. He was rescued by the bounce last ball, but this was a bit fuller, and went right into the stumps 0/1
    8.6 and Conway's struggle ends! Again he looked to punch at the ball away from his body, and the line and length of the ball took a neat outside edge this time. Atkinson bowled on a short of a length, getting it to angle across and end a bit wide of off. Conway went for the punch, but ended up tickling to the keeper 49/2
    11.1 direct hit from the mid-off fielder at the bowler's end, and the third umpire is being kept busy this evening. Wow, the stumps are hit with Young's bat barely a millimeter outside, and it's given out! Fantastic fielding from Willey, who had to dive forward while throwing underarm at the stumps. It was on a length and angled in by Curran on off stump, as Young pushed and ran. But if I look at replays, I feel he took an extra second to decide to run or not. And that might have cost him, as the fact that he didn't dive 55/3
    25.2 it might be the over for England! Mitchell has another go down the ground, perhaps premeditated the stroke so failed to get in position for the full-bunger! A launch over the sightscreen becomes a toe-end to Topley at mid-off. 100 ODI wickets for Moeen, and England are nearly all-square in the series after being 8 for 3! 139/7
    20.3 pushed through on the full length, wide line, Latham chases and this time there's no doubt about the nick! Topley's first international wicket after four blank ODIs, and a very timely one too! A burgeoning stand is broken at a run-a-ball 56 111/4
    22.1 punched back through the line, straight at the bowler! Massive moment in this match, the dangerous Phillips has gone cheaply, and that was a brilliant reaction take. In his followthrough, taking evasive action on the one hand but keeping his bucket hands big and inviting as the ball slapped his palms and settled into his grip 119/5
    22.3 edged to the tumbling slip! Topley's come to play now! Hits the pitch outside off, straightens from a perfect line and length, Root has just been put there for the new man and he stoops to his left to leave New Zealand in a hole! 123/6
    25.4 Santner has a hack against the spin, gets nowhere near it, a looping outside-edge to Bairstow at backward point. Two in the over! 140/8

    26.2 Southee has a wipe, but doesn't get hold of it! We're almost done here, hard length from Willey, inviting the hard swing to leg, but these big boundaries are too big even for Southee's proven six-hitting abilities. Bairstow swoops round to leave New Zealand nine-down 145/9
    26.5 swings across the line once more, and that's that! Willey ends what he began in his first over, as England seal an emphatic and improbable win. Cramped on the heave to leg, a skimming catch to mid-on. Quite the performance all round 147/10
