NZ 44-2 (18 ovs); Target to win: 139 | Scorecard

Shami comes back into the attack. He gets the ball to move away late and also bounce as Williamson is hit high on the pads trying to defend it.

Williamson clips the next ball through square leg for a couple of runs before he defends the next.

Slightly short from Shami as Williamson punches it into the covers but can't find the gap and he does the same next ball. He has been timing the ball well right from the start and looks keen to get on with things unlike in first innings when he batted with caution.

Ashwin gets his second wicket as he traps Conway leg before wicket. The ball skids straight on as Conway comes forward to defend but is struck right in front.

Conway walks back for 19 as New Zealand lose their second wicket.

Ross Taylor plays Ashwin with the spin on the leg side as the Kiwis look under some pressure for the first time on Day 6.
