37.3 to Gayle, respite, belated, for New Zealand, Gayle has drilled a full toss off his pads straight to deep midwicket, his expression gives nothing away, Samuels walks over to shake his hand, and Gayle walks back with a raised bat to generous applause, what an entertainer 227/3

3.5 to Simmons, 81.9 mph, another failure for Simmons, and New Zealand have struck with one of the new balls, Southee is pumped, nice line, angles it in full just outside off stump, it starts to move away before pitching, Simmons is tentative, ends up shuffling across in the crease, and feathering it to the keeper, as he pushes away from the body, shot of a man in no form 10/1
40.6 to Pollard, that looked gone, Pollard misses a full toss angled in, struck in front of middle and leg, and given right away, however, ball tracker shows us the delivery would have missed leg stump with the angle 253/4
43.6 to Bravo, gone, New Zealand have not done badly in these end overs, Southee sends another yorker for Bravo's legs, he cannot get them out of the way, pings the boot and crashes into the off stump, Southee appealed initially before realising he did not need to, Bravo limps off in some pain 272/5

18.1 to Smith, 52.6 mph, there's the breakthrough New Zealand were desperately searching for, Dwayne Smith is gone as he looked to play a full delivery towards long-on, a leading edge and that swirls towards long-off, safely taken 98/2
