T20I: England vs New Zealand at Old Trafford

New Zealand need 192 to win. England scored 106 from their last 10 overs.

Good Knock .

Kiwis firing power can chase it down ?

Guptil out in the first over. McCullum comes in swinging from the hips, first ball 4.

23 -1 after 2 overs

McCullum really unlucky to be bowled there. He was looking mighty dangerous, too, 35 off just 15 balls. 48/2.

Adil taking a hammering !

He's getting hit all over Manchester! Shocking. Given the performance out of Santner earlier, Morgan would have been counting on Rash providing much of the same. Root may need to turn his arm over.

New Zealand making this run chase look rather straightforward. England need wickets if they are to win this. And just as I type that, Bairstow drops a doddle.

89 - 2 after 8 overs

103 runs with 72 balls and  8 wickets remain  ??

Rashid to Taylor, OUT, gives it some air, dips as Taylor comes after him - he skies a slog to mid-off!

Stokes to Taylor, clear edge from Taylor trying to run the ball to third man and it clangs off Bairstow's fingers and straight to earth!

Rashid gets a wicket. Need a few more to stem the tide. 103 needed from 70 balls. Kane Williamson the key though Ronchi and Santner are lurking in the shed.
