Jamieson to Shai Hope, SIX, century for Shai Hope, his first one in ODIs against NZ! He raises his arms and soaks in all the applause. He has been exceptional today. Was in the slot on off, Shai Hope cleared his front leg and smashed it over long-off for a maximum

Matt Henry to Shai Hope, FOUR, Shai Hope moves to 98! Matt Henry once again misses the yorker and he pays the price. Shai Hope carves this one through point to pick up another boundary. He is picking his spots to a nicety
32.4
4
Matt Henry to Shai Hope, FOUR, Matt Henry goes for the yorker but ends up bowling a low full-toss, Shai Hope backs away a bit and times the drive past the right side of extra cover. Pierced the gap between extra cover and mid-off to perfection there

Jamieson to Forde, SIX, 4,4,4, 6 - this is turning out to be an expensive over. Forde makes some room and Jamieson follows him with a slot delivery. He swings through the line and clears the long-off fence
30.3
4
Jamieson to Forde, FOUR, this is too predictable! Forde knows that it's going to be short so he moves across his stumps. He gets into a good position and hits it over backward square leg for a boundary
30.2
4
Jamieson to Forde, FOUR, that's poor fielding! Forde throws his bat at the slower one and it flies off the outer half to third man. Tickner overruns it and makes a mess of it to concede a boundary
30.1
4
Jamieson to Forde, FOUR, smartly done! Forde premeditates as he walks across his stumps. It's a short delivery. He helps the pull past the left side of the keeper and theb all races to the fence

Tickner to Shai Hope, FOUR, Shai Hope moves into the nineties! He has been terrific with his strokeplay. Shortish delivery outside off, Shai Hope rises on his toes and slaps it through extra cover for yet another boundary. Was the change of pace again and Shai Hope spotted it early to dispatch it. 200 up for WI
29.4
4
Tickner to Shai Hope, FOUR, another off-pace shortish delivery, Shai Hope backs away and smashes it past the left side of mid-off to get the desired result
29.2
Tickner to Forde, no run, Santner takes a review for caught behind! The appeal wasn't that convincing but after having a chat with Latham, he challenged the decision. Was a back of a length delivery outside off, Forde shuffled across his stumps in a bid to scoop it towards fine leg but seemed like he missed it and the ball deflected off his back thigh behind and carried through to the keeper. UltraEdge shows a gap between bat and ball. The umpire checks for lbw as ball-tracking rolls in and the impact is clearly outside off
29
4
Matt Henry to Shai Hope, FOUR, streaky but counts! A shortish delivery on off, Shai Hope is rushed a bit and gets a top-edge on the pull towards fine leg. No protection out there and another boundary results. 14 runs off the over

28
W
Tickner to Shepherd, out Caught by Matt Henry!! The short delivery works on this occasion! Not a wicket-taking delivery to be honest and Shepherd is really annoyed with himself. This one is wide, Shepherd has a free license to slash at it and he does so but it flies off the outer half towards third man. It's the longest part of the ground. Henry moves across to his left and gets low to take it safely. End of a breezy cameo from Shepherd. Shepherd c Matt Henry b Tickner 22(14) [6s-3]
27.4
6
Tickner to Shepherd, SIX, too predictable from the Kiwis! The square boundaries are short and I reckon it's not a great ideal to bowl that many short deliveries. A bouncer angling in, Shepherd stands tall and helps the pull over long leg for a maximum
27
4
Matt Henry to Shai Hope, FOUR, fractionally overpitched in line of the stumps, Shai Hope clears his front leg and hits it over mid-on to pick up another boundary. The runs are flowing for WI now. 19 runs off the over, the best one of the innings so far
26.3

Matt Henry to Shepherd, SIX, boom goes Shepherd! A short delivery outside off that sits up nicely for him. he stands tall and pulls it with authority over cow corner for a maximum. He absolutely nailed that one
26.1
6
Matt Henry to Shepherd, SIX, whacked! Fuller length ball shaping in from outside off, Shepherd leans towards it and hits it over mid-wicket. The fielder in the deep moves to his left but can only watch it sailing over the fence
26
Nathan Smith to Shai Hope, 2 runs, in the air... but safe! Shai Hope pulls this shortish delivery over mid-wicket. More height than distance on it but it falls in no man's land. A couple results. 150 up for WI
25.2
4
Nathan Smith to Shai Hope, FOUR, shot! Shortish delivery angling in from outside off, Shai Hope gets into a good position and pulls it with authority through mid-wicket for a rocketing boundary
24.4

Santner to Shai Hope, FOUR, lovely stroke! Floated full delivery around off, Shai Hope stays leg-side of it and drives it crisply past extra cover. Long-off hares to his left and dives but to no avail
23.4
W
Nathan Smith to Justin Greaves, out Caught by Michael Bracewell!! Another one bites the dust! A short delivery just outside off, doesn't rise as much as Greaves perhaps expected it to. He goes for a pull across the line but miscues it completely towards covers. Bracewell settles under the skier with ease. The catching from the Kiwis has been good today unlike in the last game. Justin Greaves c Michael Bracewell b Nathan Smith 22(27) [6s-1]
23.2
F
Nathan Smith to Shai Hope, 1 run, fifty for Shai Hope! A gentle raise of the bat from the WI skipper to acknowledge all the applause! It has been a really good knock under testing circumstances. Was a shortish delivery outside off, Shai Hope slashes it to third man for a single
21.5
6
Tickner to Justin Greaves, SIX, nicely played but this is not good bowling from Tickner! Short and wide, Justin Greaves rises on his toes and upper cuts it over third man for a flat six. He used the pace and bounce to good effect there

16.5
Santner to Justin Greaves, no run, Justin Greaves has been trapped in front but he opts for the review. Looks pretty adjacent! Only the height can save him. Was the arm delivery that came in with the round the wicket angle, it landed on a length and went past the attempted front foot defence of Greaves to ping him high on the back thigh. UltraEdge shows a flat line between bat and ball. Over to ball-tracking and it's going over the stumps. Good review from Greaves to overturn the on-field call
15.3
W
Nathan Smith to Roston Chase, out Bowled!! Knocked him over! Brilliant bowling from Nathan Smith! Hard length delivery outside off, lands and seams in prodigiously, Roston Chase tries to punch it on the up but doesn't account for the inward movement. A bat-pad gap is created and the ball goes right through that to crash into the off-stump. The Kiwis are ruling the roost in helpful conditions. Roston Chase b Nathan Smith 2(5)
14.2
W
Santner to Rutherford, out Caught by Conway!! Rutherford holes out! Santner is cock-a-hoop as he pumps his fist in the air! 93kph quicker and flatter delivery on middle, skids after pitching and there's a bit of extra bounce too, Rutherford is rushed for pace but still goes through with his pull shot. Ends up miscuing it towards deep mid-wicket. Conway runs in a bit and settles under it nicely. Rutherford c Conway b Santner 13(9) [6s-2]
13.4
6

13.2

Nathan Smith to Rutherford, SIX, what a strike! A shortish delivery that sits up nicely for Rutherford on middle and off. Rutherford swivels across and pulls it with aplomb over deep backward square leg for a maximum. That came right off the screws

11.5
W
Nathan Smith to Ackeem Auguste, out Caught by Jamieson!! Ackeem Auguste can't make his start count! Shortish delivery on off, Ackeem Auguste goes for a pull across the line but gets a top-edge over mid-wicket. There's a fielder running in from the deep but Jamieson who is back-tracking from mid-wicket calls for it. He steadies himself, keeps his eyes on the ball and takes a well-judged catch. Ackeem Auguste c Jamieson b Nathan Smith 22(31) [4s-3]
11.2

Nathan Smith to Shai Hope, SIX, Shai Hope takes full toll off the Free Hit! On a back of a length on off, Shai Hope clears his front leg and whacks it over long-off for a maximum. He struck that with a lot of power and the ball traveled 94m

9.3
W
Jamieson to Keacy Carty, out Caught by Chapman!! Jamieson picks up his second wicket! That was a really loose shot. Fuller length delivery well outside off, swinging away, Keacy Carty is on the move as he tries to drive it on the up but it flies off the outer half towards backward point. Chapman takes it reverse cup overhead. He wasn't in control of the stroke and paid the price for it. Keacy Carty c Chapman b Jamieson 7(12) [4s-1]

Tickner to Ackeem Auguste, FOUR, crunched! Ackeem Auguste uses his feet, converts it into a half-volley and smashes it over the bowler's head. That went to the fence at the rate of knots, fine shot that
5.1
W
Jamieson to John Campbell, out Caught by Tickner!! John Campbell was struggling to get going and he eventually perishes! Fullish delivery swinging across Campbell sharply. He tries to slog it across but ends up getting a leading edge towards third man. Tickner stationed there has to get low to his right and does well to grab it. Ideal start for the Kiwis. John Campbell c Tickner b Jamieson 4(17)

Matt Henry to Ackeem Auguste, FOUR, Ackeem Auguste uses his feet and does well to flat-bat this one over the bowler's head for a boundary. This shot will give him some confidence

Matt Henry to Ackeem Auguste, FOUR, streaky but counts! On a length, seaming away, Ackeem Auguste tries to chop it square of the wicket but gets a thick inside edge past his stumps and through to the fine leg fence
