8.6 Anderson to Ryder, no run, goes for another swing across the line, mistimes it into the ground and back to the bowler

9.6 Broad to McCullum, no run, back of a length on the off stump, some sharp bounce there, defended to point off the backfoot

9.5 Broad to McCullum, no run, sees him coming down and bangs it in short, McCullum squats

9.4 Broad to McCullum, FOUR!!, That''s just rubbing it in, it wasn''t all that short or wide, McCullum goes for the cut, takes the edge and flies over the leaping keeper!

17.4 Sidebottom to McCullum, 1 run, shortish delivery, steps back and taps it behind square, Ryder had given up and if the throw from Collingwood was a good one he''''d be gone!

17.4 Sidebottom to McCullum, wide, McCullum is far down the track even before the ball is bowled, Sidebottom overcompensates by banging it in outside leg stump

17.2 Sidebottom to McCullum, 1 run, walks across to thump it through extra cover, gets an outside edge instead which zips away to third man

17.1 Sidebottom to Ryder, 1 run, shortish outside off, driven off the backfoot to deep point

18.1 Collingwood to McCullum, FOUR!!, Yes he can! Slightly short, McCullum rocks back and slaps that through extra cover to bring up the most emphatic of victories!

Can he finish this off with one hit now?

It was New Zealand all the way since the rain interruption. They bowled and fielded superbly, removing England''''s last 8 wickets for 73 runs. Out came McCullum and Ryder, who chased down 165 in extra quick time, helped by some dropped catches and some sloppy fielding and at a whopping run rate of 9.08. McCullum''''s knock was reminiscent of his 80 against Bangladesh and Ryder has shown but what he''''s capable of. New Zealand win by 10 wickets and go 2-0 up in the 5 match series. Do join us for the third match on Friday. Until then it''''s goodbye.
