2:37 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | ENG 41/1 after 08 overs, Henry gets Malan

 

Matt Henry has got Dawid Malan here. It was right in the cordon of uncertainty and Malan has had a habit of playing at every ball and this one gets the nick eventually. No mistake by Tom Latham behind the stumps. New Zealand have their first break.

2:27 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | ENG 35/0 after 06 overs

 

Four!! Bairstow gets cracking and gets back-to-back fours. One was down the ground done through the backward point where Boult could have done better but just wasn’t able to. 

 

Nine runs come from the over. 

 

2:23 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | ENG 26/0 after 05 overs, Kiwis comeback well

 

Four!! There is width on offer and Malan cut his way to a four over point and cover

 

Dot ball

 

Wide outside off and called a wide as well 

 

Malan is playing on every ball and he might nick one too it seems because his feet are immovable it is just the nad-eye co-ordination. 

 

That would be just five runs from the over. 

 

2:19 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | England 21/0 after 04 overs

 

Matt Henry has been brilliant in this match so far. Although he has been hit for a four in this over, he has not let Dawid Malan get away at all. And now ends the over with a bouncer. 

 

2:18 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | England 16/0 after 03 overs

 

New Zealand have come back well after the first over and in the next two, they have conceded only four. This is the only way they can come back into the game.

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | New Zealand lose review

Review of LBW!! Dawid Malan has been stuck on the pad by Matt Henry and New Zealand appealed vehemently to no avail. They have taken the review now. 

 

Flatline past the bat. No bat is involved. Ball tracking shows that the wickets were missing. That would be a not-out and New Zealand lose the review. 

 

2:05 PM

England vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | England 12/0 after 01 over, Rollicking start for England

 

Trent Boult bowls an in-swinger first up and Buttler defends

 

Six!! On the hips and flicked away by Buttler for a six. The first boundary of the tournament. 

 

Played with the middle of the bat and a single taken

 

Dawid Malan is on the crease and he gets off the mark with a single. 

 

Four!! Middled down the ground by Buttler for a four. Did the New Zealand fielder get his knee stuck in the ground? Yes, and it might be troublesome. It is Devon Conway. One of the most important members of the Kiwi side.
