    16.6 off stump flattened! Fullish ball on middle and angling towards off. Allen attempts a leg-side swipe with minimal footwork, and that's that. Seventeen short of a century but a very strong contribution of 83 nonetheless 163/3

    3.5 full ball outside off. Slices a shot over cover. Lands safely beyond the infield, and they call for a third run. But Conway is struggling to turn and come back for the third.... and Moeen's throw from the deep is good too! Bails whipped off, and Conway is a metre short! It's also a front-foot no-ball, but the run-out will obviously stand 31/1

    9.1 full ball on middle and turning sharply away. Seifert tries to flick through midwicket but the ball whizzes past the outside edge. Buttler whips the bails off in a flash and Seifert's back leg has dragged out of the crease. TV umpire is having a look but Seifert is sure he is out. He has already walked to the boundary line 75/2

    18.2 yorker aimed at the base of leg stump and Phillips can't do much about that! Fails to dig it out, and the stumps are rattled. Out for 69 185/4

    6.1 swung across the line, and Bairstow goes now! He never got going either, targets the shorter side with a launch to leg, but Phillips is back on the rope and swallows the offering. Real pressure now on England's world-beaters 30/3

    2.4 skews off the leading edge to deep cover! Jacks' stay is once again all too brief! He climbed into the wide line again, helicoptered his wrists on impact in a bid to provide more leverage, but could only plop the ball to Chapman, who gathered at the second attempt 17/1

    5.4 hoisted up into the off-side, and Malan's scratchy knock is done! Another slower ball, his top hand came off it on impact, Conway at deep cover pouches the catch well, reaching forward, and that's not the birthday bash he'd have had in mind 26/2

    8.3 heaved high through the line, but picks out a deep-set mid-on! Edgbaston falls silent, which is a rare achievement for any visiting team. Mitchell was under the steepling chance, and kept his composure well. New Zealand are big favourites now! 55/4

    12.1 huge hoick, straight up in the air! Quicker into the pitch from Santner, Buttler is hurried on his pull as the bat turns on impact. The bowler jogs back to pocket the chance at mid-on, and that's a huge setback to England's hopes 92/5

    15.4 claws the pull from outside off, and Mitchell gets his second of the over! Had to work fractionally harder for this one, walking in off the rope on this occasion as Moeen got right underneath his launch for the stands. Another slower ball and Jamieson's comeback to the big time is looking very tasty 113/9

    13.2 dragged down, and slapped to deep midwicket! Livingstone's eyes lit up, but that was a 74mph cutter, and he was through his stroke too soon! Another non-descript knock from a player who hasn't got going of late... England are sinking now 95/6

    15.2 stands and delivers.... straight to long-on! As reliable as the postal service, a hoist across a cross-seam delivery... looked better than it turned out to be from Wood's point of view. Mitchell barely moves as England lose their eighth 111/8
