England vs New Zealand, 1st ODI at Chester-le-Street, , Jun 15 2008 - Ball by Ball Commentary

Bell closes out the match with a catch in the covers, Southee leaning back and chipping up right to the fielder

a good shot there from Southee, lifts it from outside off and times it all the way over backward square, the ball going fairly flat

outside off, a vain swish away from the body, the ball moving wide off the seam

short ball on the legs, Southee looks to pull it but the ball rushes on to him

backs away and goes for the pull, hits it up a lot higher than he wanted, Wright running hard from midwicket and catches it over his head, excellent catch, particularly with plenty of fielders rushing round near him

backs away again, pushed into the covers, they chase the single through

outside the leg stump, the batsman steps back and lets it go through

defended on the front foot

the batsman gives himself some room to step back and lift this high and straight, just wide of the oncoming Shah who is right next to it when it leaps over the rope

outside off, cut off the back foot into the covers

some width outside off, tempts the batsman into a cut off the back foot that he doesn't get quite right

slower ball, the batsman comes out and pushes down the track

defended back down the track on the front foot

banged in short, but this time it's ruled wide as it creeps to leg

bangs it in short, it hardly gets up off the turf, Collingwood kicks the ball at the stumps but misses by a fair way, everyone finding it hysterical

down on one knee, shouts of "Catch it!" and Collingwood has two wickets in three balls, Vettori picking out Anderson in the deep with his pull

short ball on the legs, swept round to fine leg

width outside off, cut to point and that's held by Bopara on his knees at backward point

pushed forward, they look for the run, decide not to take it and England decide to "Hold it, hold it"

width outside off and again some turn in, worked with the spin, moving it out to midwicket
