6:00 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | Matt Henry and Joe Root shine

 

The Kiwis will have to bat smartly to get to this tricky total as the wicket is slow and England spinners Adil Rashid and Ali would come in handy. Mark Wood would be a big threat early on in the innings. 

 

For England, Root was the top-scorer with 77 off 86 balls while Henry was the best bowler with figures of 3/48 for the Kiwi side.

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | Last wicket stand could turn out to be a game-changer

 

The last wicket stand of 30 runs coming in just 26 balls between Mark Wood and Adil Rashid could become handy and substantially a game-changer for England as the psychological difference of chasing 260 and 280 is big in ODI cricket. 

5:58 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | England couldn’t arrest the fall of wickets

 

England couldn’t arrest the fall of their wickets even as skipper Jos Buttler and former captain Joe Root added 70 for the fifth wicket. Once Henry came back to get rid of Buttler, Lima Livingstone, Root, Chris Woakes and Sam Curran followed suit.

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | Spinners weaved a web for English middle-order

5:54 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | Matt Henry stuck first for the Kiwis

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | ENG 282/9 after 50 overs

 

The last wicket partnership between Mark Wood and Adil Rashid was crucial for England as they added 30 in just 26 balls to help England breach the total of 280 which would be called competitive on this wicket which is not very fast. 

 

5:18 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | ENG 252/9 after 45.4 overs

 

That would be the ninth wicket down for England here and it is Matt Henry who has got the wicket of Sam Curran as weird as it may sound the defending champions are struggling big time here. 

 

5:14 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | ENG 250/8 after 45 overs

 

Wicket!! That would be the end of Chris Woakes as he is unable to execute his inside-out shot properly against Mitchell Santner who has his second scalp. England are eight down for 250 in the 45th over. 

 

5:10 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | ENG 247/7 after 44 overs

 

Sam Curran and Chris Woakes have added 18 runs in the last 19 balls and that is taking England towards what could be a fighting total in the end.
