New Zealand vs England, 5th T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Build-up:

Hello and welcome to the Live Blog for the fifth and final T20I between New Zealand and England at Eden Park. What has been a see-saw series has come down to a decider in Auckland - where New Zealand have only won once in their last seven outings. With a team minus several of its star players who have been rested, England have done really well to get this far and a series win will be an added bonus. New Zealand too have been without the likes of Kane Williamson, Lockie Ferguson and Trent Boult but they would have hoped for some consistency, especially being the home team. Now, with the rain threat looming large over this game, the series might end in a stalemate.
