| 6.2 : 6.2: Jason Holder to Finn Allen, FOUR! Just a touch fuller and around off, Finn Allen stands tall and hits through the line of the ball, lofting it over mid on for a boundary. This will get the Kiwis going a bit. |
| 6.3 : 6.3: Jason Holder to Finn Allen, SIX! Poor delivery from Jason Holder and it gets the treatment it deserves. A half-volley on the pads, Finn Allen whips it aerially and smokes the ball over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie. |
| 6.5 : 6.5: Jason Holder to Finn Allen, SIX! Oh, my! That has gone a long, long way. Holder bowls the scrambled-seam delivery but once again serves it full. This is on middle and leg, Finn Allen just launches it high and handsome over the wide long on fence for a monster hit. |
| 7.2 : 7.2: Alzarri Joseph to Martin Guptill, FOUR! Martin Guptill tries to get into the act now and gets lucky this time. A length ball, outside off and at 142 clicks. Guptill throws his hands at it and gets a thick outside edge that flies over the slip cordon and races away into the fence. |
| 8.4 : 8.4: Akeal Hosein to Finn Allen, OUT! TAKEN! Brilliantly held by Nicholas Pooran and Akeal Hosein draws first blood for his side. Nicely flighted and drifted onto middle and leg. Finn Allen skips down the track and looks to loft it over mid on but the ball grips and turns away. The ball goes off the outside half of the bat and a long way over extra cover and with the wind as well. Pooran runs back and takes an excellent running catch. Allen departs after a brisk start. |
| 9.2 : 9.2: Alzarri Joseph to Martin Guptill, DROPPED AND FOUR! Good length from Alzarri Joseph and in that channel around off. Martin Guptill is forced to play at it and the outside edge is found. Jason Holder is late to dive to his left at first slip and the ball flicks his hands before going away into the third man fence. Holder though seems to have injured his finger here. |
| 9.6 : 9.6: Alzarri Joseph to Martin Guptill, FOUR! A well-controlled pull shot from Guptill. This is short and over middle and leg, Guptill pulls it away behind square on the leg side and picks up a boundary. At the end of Powerplay 1, New Zealand are 50/1! |

Akeal Hosein fires one in, full and angling into the pads. This one grips and straightens a touch after pitching as Martin Guptill looks to work this leg side.

| 14.5 : 14.5: Akeal Hosein to Devon Conway, OUT! CAUGHT! Akeal Hosein is on a roll! West Indies have their third wicket and the pressure is now on New Zealand! Akeal Hosein decides to flight this one a bit but continues to bowl full and outside off, Devon Conway gets on one knee and looks to drag the ball leg side with his sweep. He manages to top edge this towards the deep square leg fieder. Shamarh Brooks comes running in from the deep and takes a lovely catch with both hands diving forward. Ak |

| 24.4 : 24.4: Yannic Cariah to Daryl Mitchell, FOUR! Nicely played! Around off, Daryl Mitchell opts for the reverse sweep and times it to perfection. The ball goes through the short third man region and into the fence. |
| 25.2 : 25.2: Akeal Hosein to Daryl Mitchell, FOUR! A touch of finesse from Daryl Mitchell. Darted in on off stump, Mitchell gets well inside the line of the ball and paddles it fine. The ball trickles away into the vacant boundary there. |
| 26.3 : 26.3: Yannic Cariah to Kane Williamson, FOUR! The third time's a charm! Tossed up, full and outside off, Kane Williamson reaches out and creams it through covers for a boundary. |

| 29.4 : 29.4: Alzarri Joseph to Kane Williamson, MISFIELD AND FOUR! Back of a length and around off, Williamson bends his back a bit and uses the pace of the ball to steer it to the right of third man. Akeal Hosein over there lets it through his hands and it will be a boundary. Joseph doesn't look impressed with that effort. |
| 29.6 : 29.6: Alzarri Joseph to Kane Williamson, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! A huge moment in the game as Alzarri Joseph sends the Kiwi skipper packing! Joseph serves this one on a good length, in that channel around off and this one holds its line. There's just a bit of an extra bounce as Kane Williamson has a little nibble at it. The ball takes the outside edge and Shai Hope does the rest behind the sticks. Joseph picks up his 20th ODI wicket at this venue and West Indies are in complete control here. |
| 31.3 : 31.3: Alzarri Joseph to Michael Bracewell, FOUR! A lucky one but he won't mind. Joseph bangs this one short and on middle, Michael Bracewell goes for the pull a bit late and gets a top edge over the keeper and the ball races away to the fence. |

| 38.4 : 38.4: Yannic Cariah to Michael Bracewell, OUT! LBW! Plumb in front! Yannic Cariah gets the breakthrough for his side and picks up his maiden ODI wicket. This is nicely tossed up, on off stump and turning into the left-hander. Michael Bracewell tries to defend off the front foot but gets beaten by the turn and gets pinged on the pads.

Tim Southee moves a long way across the off stump as he attempts the scoop. The ball sneaks under his willow and goes on to shatter the leg stump. This is a good comeback from Holder after receiving a bit of stick early in the innings and New Zealand are just one wicket away from getting bundled out. |
| 45.2 : 45.2: Alzarri Joseph to Trent Boult, OUT! DRAGGED ON! That is it for the New Zealand innings as they have been bowled out with 28 balls still to go. Alzarri Joseph bowls this on a length and outside off, Trent Boult looks to make room by going to the leg side but he moves a bit too far away from the ball.

| 2.5 : 2.5: Trent Boult to Kyle Mayers, OUT! CAUGHT-BEHIND! Trent Boult finally gets what he was looking for here. He bowls this on a good length again and on off, nips away sharply after hitting the deck, Kyle Mayers looks to push it away from his crease without much footwork. The ball takes the outside edge and goes towards the left of the keeper and Tom Latham dives that side to do the rest. This is just what the Kiwis needed. Can they build on this? |
| 3.2 : 3.2: Tim Southee to Shai Hope, SIX! BANG! This has been dismissed away! Tim Southee goes short once again and bowls this outside off, Shai Hope pulls this towards deep square leg for a biggie. That was a hell of a shot! |

| 13.6 : 13.6: Mitchell Santner to Keacy Carty, OUT! LBW! A very good review from New Zealand and they have got the breakthrough. Mitchell Santner bowls this one a bit flatter and slides it onto midle and leg. Keacy Carty looks to defend off the front foot but misses and gets hit on the pads. A huge appeal for lbw but it is turned down! After a bit of discussion, Kane Williamson decides to review it.

| 19.6 : 19.6: Michael Bracewell to Shamarh Brooks, FOUR! Might have been intentional. This is on a length and around off, Brooks presses forward and just opens the face of the bat at the last moment to nudge the ball towards the vacant third man fence. |
| 22.6: Trent Boult to Nicholas Pooran, FOUR! SLAPPED! This is short and on off, Nicholas Pooran somehow manages to pull it past the mid on fielder for a boundary. |
| 23.3 : 23.3: Mitchell Santner to Shamarh Brooks, FOUR! FIFTY for Shamarh Brooks and what a way to get it as well. Mitchell Santner bowls this flatter and on off, Shamarh Brooks makes room and slices it past the short third man fielder for a boundary. This has been a really good innings by him. Can he stay till the end now? |
| 25.4 : 25.4: Mitchell Santner to Shamarh Brooks, FOUR! This has been put away well! Mitchell Santner serves this full and pitching outside leg, Shamarh Brooks sweeps this past short fine leg and picks up another boundary for himself. |
| 28.3 : 28.3: Tim Southee to Nicholas Pooran, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! The break in play has resulted in a wicket! Tim Southee serves this on a good length and just outside off.

| 33.2 : 33.2: Trent Boult to Shamarh Brooks, OUT! TIMBER! Shamarh Brooks' outstanding innings comes to an end! He has got his team really close to the finish line. Trent Boult goes a fraction full and angles the ball into the right-hander. Shamarh Brooks plays along the wrong line and the ball beats his inside edge to shatter the stumps. New Zealand do not really celebrate as they know this is a little too late. |
