9.43pm: Time for the presentations in Canterbury. Alice Capsey is Player of the Match: "We got a good start in the powerplay, got a bit tight... the way Kemp finished in the second-to-last over was outstanding. Nice to get over the line. Best of both worlds, loving batting at No. 3"
New Zealand captain Sophie Devine: "We had a bit of fight, bit of ticker. Really proud of this team, been a tough tour. Weren't good enough in the field but proud of how the girls fought back. [141] We thought it was par, not my natural game to go as slowly but we wanted wickets in the shed at the back end, then go hard. [NZ spinners] Look at England's spinners and what they've done, I thought our spinners were excellent. It's about learning and adjusting on the go. I'd like a win but this is international cricket, it's tough. We're getting closer."
England's stand-in skip Nat Sciver-Brunt: "I felt pretty out [on not reviewing lbw]. It was good, with the bowling attack we've got, it's a pretty easy job. Happy I could keep the winning streak going. Would have liked more out of myself. [Kemp] We've had some long batting, the calmness that they showed was brilliant. [Young players] Putting ourselves under pressure, we don't want to do that too often - but to come out the other side, learn from it, and take it to Bangladesh, perfect."
Right, that's that for tonight. There are two more T20Is to come, two more chances for NZ to get on the board. Join us again from The Oval on Saturday. Cheerio!
9.38pm: Well, England "put themselves under pressure", in Sophie Ecclestone's words, but came through in a tight chase - though it has to be said, NZ's fielding helped them out a fair bit. Nat Sciver-Brunt made a golden duck standing in as captain (though would have been saved by a review), and Sophie Devine's side came as close as they have to victory on tour. But Alice Capsey's best T20I score of 67 not out from 60 balls anchored England, while another young gun in Freya Kemp helped nail the target with a handful of balls to spare. Phew!
Devine to bowl, England want five to win

Kemp the matchwinner? England will feel comfortable needing less than a run a ball
Here's Mark: "Now if Capsey had been run out on 8, how different this may have looked. NZ's fielding, among other things, have let them down this tour."
Still in the balance here. England need 17 from 12, Kasperek to bowl the 19th

Freya Kemp is the finisher at No. 6. Can she finish this?

Pretty much 10s now for England, who haven't hit a boundary since the 13th over
