Live blog: Twenty20 - Black Caps v England

3rd & 7 37yd

Seven overs to go and New Zealand need 69 to win.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:08:21 PM
Finn is back for his third over. He has 0-21 from his first two.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:08:42 PM
Kane Williamson has the potential to mimic @ABdeVilliers17 in his cricket career. Unbelievable talent from both #ENGvNZ #BackTheBlackCaps

Kane Williamson is cricketing equivalent of a non violent crusader, 50 of 31 balls without ever playing a shot in anger. #EngvNZ

Class from Williamson. Smith/Clarke/Warner will have to play well to surpass him as the best player to tour England this summer. #ENGvNZ

by LouisSealey via twitter 6/23/2015 8:10:48 PM
Williamson is playing so well but he needs better support at the other end. Santner is struggling a little to tick the strike over and/or hit boundaries.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:11:06 PM
Get the feeling if Kane there at the end NZ win... #engvnz

by Innocent Bystander via twitter 6/23/2015 8:11:08 PM
And with that single taking him to 52, Kane Williamson has his highest T20i score. ^MB #EngvNZ http://pbs.twimg.com/media/CINfbzHXAAAP2oY.jpg

Only five from that over. Wood into the attack now.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:12:41 PM
New Zealand need to make a move now. Williamson advances down the wicket first ball and collects two.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:13:14 PM
He then slaps the ball off his pads for a single. Time for Santner to come to the party.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:13:54 PM
WICKET - Santer has been bowled.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:14:32 PM
Santner tried to slog one across the onside but played all around it and Wood knocked his off stump over.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:15:17 PM
61 now needed from 33 balls.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:15:44 PM
What odds on a Williamson century? would be hilarious!

by Bro 6/23/2015 8:15:45 PM
64 IN 6 OVS 5 wkt left
wow,i always wanted to see Kane in this situation.lets see how`ll he go? #ENGvNZ

by \/i$h@l via twitter 6/23/2015 8:15:53 PM
I can't find odds of a Williamson century but NZ are now paying $3.75 to win.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:16:12 PM
WICKET - Williamson has been run out.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:17:30 PM
McCullum was desperate to get Williamson on striker, a little too desperate. He called a run when after hitting straight to a fielder and a direct hit left Williamson well short.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:18:40 PM
Wicket - Southee is gone first ball.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:18:49 PM
I heard a story (unverified) that at high school Williamson once scored a century in a chase of 120, farming the strike so he faced every ball of the last 5 overs! hope its true

by Bro 6/23/2015 8:19:05 PM
That should just about do it for England. Southee tried to clobber one down the ground but hit it straight to mid off. NZ now need 61 from 30 balls.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:19:47 PM
Bye bye #BlackCaps #ENGvNZ bring on the #Ashes

by coxybass via twitter 6/23/2015 8:20:01 PM
McCullum has not scored off five balls now. The WASP must be around 2% now.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:22:33 PM
Great over from Finn comes to an end. Just three runs from it.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:24:25 PM
I think it's been a very poor tour of England by the @BLACKCAPS It's about results at this level & NZ have been out played. #Ashes Gameon!!

by kiwinmalta via twitter 6/23/2015 8:24:59 PM
58 now needed from 24 balls.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:25:18 PM
WICKET - McCullum is gone for 3.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:25:57 PM
He stepped right across onto his offstump and tried to tickle one to fine leg but hit it straight to the fielder.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:26:36 PM
McClenaghan is the last man in for New Zealand.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:26:56 PM
WICKET - McClenaghan is gone first ball and it's all over.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:27:40 PM
ENGLAND WIN BY 56 RUNS

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:27:53 PM
What a brilliant match. What a brilliant series. Thank you @BLACKCAPS for a wonderful series. Well done @ECB_cricket

New Zealand @BLACKCAPS lost 5 wickets for just 4 runs in 11 balls - all out for 135 and defeated by @ECB_cricket by 56 runs #EngvNZ

Thanks for joining our live coverage this morning. Make sure you stick around for Andrew Alderson's match report which will be online very soon.

by Steven Holloway 6/23/2015 8:32:03 PM
@BLACKCAPS Once again thanks for a great game. Going to miss you guys now. Are you sure you can't play @englandcricket instead of Australia?

by LauraYoung1964 via twitter 6/23/2015 8:32:19 PM
Said it before and I'll say it again; That was possibly the best cricket series Ive seen since the '05 Ashes. Absolutely brilliant #ENGvNZ

by TCappers via twitter 6/23/2015 8:33:23 PM
Brilliant bowling from England who got 5 wickets in 20 or so minutes to beat NZ by 57 runs. NZ 135 all out #ENGvNZ http://pbs.twimg.com/media/CINkVl0W8AE6s0B.jpg

At 89 for 2 New Zealand were in great shape with Kane Williamson marshalling the chase but once Taylor got out it was a procession for England with no-one else making double figures. A poor way for the Blackcaps to end a good tour but they depart with the good wishes of the British public for being fine tourists...
