England in New Zealand T20I Series - 1st T20I

New Zealand v England

England won by 40 runs

T20I no. 301 | 2012/13 season
Played at Eden Park, Auckland
9 February 2013 - day/night (20-over match)


England innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
MJ Lumb	c Rutherford b McClenaghan	22	35	15	1	2	146.66
8.4 good piece of bowling, banged in a short and Lumb went for the pull but it loops off the glove could to send a simple catch to short fine-leg 91/3
AD Hales	st †BB McCullum b Hira	21	14	16	2	1	131.25
3.4 well bowled, holds this one back, it's a fraction slower, Hales comes down the pitch but loses his shape as he aims over the leg side and McCullum completes a neat stumping. Spin works, as it often does 29/1
LJ Wright	c Hira b Ellis	42	16	20	3	4	210.00
7.6 gone! This time they hold one. A little fortunate for New Zealand as it was another length ball, Wright connected cleanly but slotted it straight to deep midwicket 89/2
EJG Morgan	c Taylor b Hira	46	32	26	4	3	176.92
15.5 Taylor holds one! And has a wry smile about it. Morgan loses his shape as he tries a booming drive and the ball loops to cover 172/4
JM Bairstow	c Guptill b Boult	38	36	22	3	2	172.72
17.5 well, that's a rare sight today. A ball fails to clear long-on. Back of a length again, Bairstow played another flat-batted pull and found Guptill with precision 194/5
JC Buttler†	not out	32	19	16	2	3	200.00

SR Patel	c †BB McCullum b Ellis	2	2	3	0	0	66.66
18.3 good catch from the captain. Patel gets a big top edge as he aims over the leg side, goes straight up and McCullum moves around from his position to take the chance 197/6
SCJ Broad*	c †BB McCullum b Boult	4	5	3	1	0	133.33
19.2 oh, well done Brendon. That was superb. This time it's Broad who gets a big top edge and it goes straight behind McCullum who turns and chases it. Almost goes to far, in fact, but holds on 203/7
JC Tredwell	not out	0	2	0	0	0	-

TA Boult	4	0	40	2	10.00	(1nb, 1w)

JEC Franklin	1	0	14	0	14.00


New Zealand innings (target: 215 runs from 20 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
HD Rutherford	c Tredwell b Broad	18	15	11	2	1	163.63
3.2 back of a length and it brings reward. Rutherford went for the pull, was a little cramped for room, and it looped up off a top edge to midwicket 31/1
MJ Guptill	c Broad b Wright	44	58	32	3	2	137.50
12.5 drilled! Straight to the captain. That should seal it for England. Guptill can't believe he has slotted a full ball straight to mid-off. Struck it cleanly, but didn't place it. 111/4
BB McCullum*†	c Morgan b Finn	10	6	5	2	0	200.00
4.5 gone! Brilliant catch! Massive moment for England. Eoin Morgan has held a superb catch running back from point. McCullum used his feet, when for a booming drive and it slices off a thick edge. Morgan turned, kept his eye on the ball and swallowed the chance 46/2
LRPL Taylor	c Bairstow b Finn	13	19	14	1	0	92.85
8.6 finds the fielder! That's another crucial blow. Aiming one of his trademark midwicket blows off the front foot but doesn't get the distance. Came from low down on the bat. England safe in the field. 77/3
C Munro	b Broad	28	25	19	0	3	147.36
14.4 and another...Broad making a mark on his international return. Pretty ugly heave from Munro to a length delivery, an off-cutter that he didn't pick, and the stumps get splattered. Clever from Broad, subtle changes of pace 128/6
JEC Franklin	c †Buttler b Broad	8	6	5	0	1	160.00
14.1 strikes first ball back. Franklin moving to leg to open up the off side, another back-of-a-length delivery, and he gets a thick top edge 127/5
NL McCullum	c †Buttler b Wright	3	8	6	0	0	50.00
15.5 massive top edge and well caught by Buttler who steadied himself, much like McCullum earlier, and pouched it. He had to reach a little at the end, but had it under control 134/7
AM Ellis	c Wright b Finn	4	7	5	0	0	80.00
16.1 another one goes, falling like skittles now, as Ellis gives himself room but can only lob the short ball to point...credit to Finn, to, as that was an off-cutter 135/8
RM Hira	not out	20	18	11	2	1	181.81

TA Boult	c Patel b Broad	4	9	6	0	0	66.66
18.2 four for Broad, he's having a productive start in New Zealand. Boult trying to carve it over the off side and lobs a catch to cover. Nearly popped out of Samit's hands 156/9
