Williamson hits half-century to rally NZ

June 06, 2017 22:03

NZ 156-2 (30 ovs) vs England 310 | Scorecard

New Zealand ensuring they get a boundary atleast in every Rashid over. This time Taylor gives him the charge as he flicks him off his pads over midwicket for a four.

Rashi has struggled to make an impression, giving away 31 runs in five overs.

Stokes, who has also gone for runs, giving away 38 runs in six overs, is replaced by Woods with England desperate to make the breakthrough.

But no stopping Williamson, who shows his class as he lofts a full delivery from Woods over mid-on for a four. He then tries to chop it over the off-side but mishits it on the bounce to sweeper cover for one.

Ball also comes back as he gives away just three with NZ reaching 156 for two in 30 overs, needing another 155 from 20 overs for victory.
