Joe Root 100* (71 balls, 12 fours, 2 sixes) :clap:

The 3rd fastest ever ODI hundred for an England batsman... Buttler 61 balls, Pietersen 69 balls.

I thought we were playing a 20/20 match until I saw cricinfo had ticked to 22.3 overs bowled.

England 181-4... 25 overs to go... Stokes and Buttler at the crease... could go either way - I hope they take their time and build to a big finish!

Watching this I can't help but think of Steven Finn... his last effort bowling to McCullum ended in 2-0-49-0, with McCullum scoring 44 including 6 sixes...

Whatever score we end up with, this is going to be something special... :thumbsup:

Stokes drag one on from Boult :nono:

195-5 (28.2 overs)

Advantage NZ after such a great start for England ?

Sam Billings on debut...

The old adage of doubling the score at 30 overs... perhaps we don't have enough wickets in hand to manage that

It's a calypso collapso! Joking aside, everything's not going to be sorted overnight and I'd far rather see them get 250 or whatever like this than 246-9 from 50 overs......

I'll raise you the old adage that England are proper shit at the one day game and will be all out for 260 - which is a par* score.


*30 years ago.

England 251-6 (36.4 overs)

Buttler 37*(35) Rashid 23*(19)

Another 7-8 overs from these two and we could still be on for a decent total here!
