0.2 to FH Allen, bowled him next ball! They burned a review last delivery, but have got Allen this time. The middle stump was pushed back, and Allen is gone for a duck. This was on a length, and pitched around middle stump. It straightened after pitching, and again went through Allen’s attempted defence. He was rescued by the bounce last ball, but this was a bit fuller, and went right into the stumps. 0/1
26.2 to TG Southee, Southee has a wipe, but doesn’t get hold of it! We’re almost done here, hard length from Willey, inviting the hard swing to leg, but these big boundaries are too big even for Southee’s proven six-hitting abilities. Bairstow swoops round to leave New Zealand nine-down. 145/9
26.5 to TA Boult, swings across the line once more, and that’s that! Willey ends what he began in his first over, as England seal an emphatic and improbable win. Cramped on the heave to leg, a skimming catch to mid-on. Quite the performance all round. 147/10
