6.2 Southee to Gayle, OUT, Gayle goes, Southee gets him with a jaffa, a huge wicket, held it back just a little, slightly short of a good length on the off and it appeared to nip away, gets a faint nick as he plays for it and McCullum makes no mistake CH Gayle c †BB McCullum b Southee 30 (31m 14b 3x4 2x6) SR: 214.28. West Indies 61/3
8.6 Sammy to Guptill, OUT, New Zealand are slipping, short and wide and Guptill senses a chance but he can't keep it down, cuts that straight to point where Samuels takes it easily MJ Guptill c Samuels b Sammy 21 (36m 27b 2x4 0x6) SR: 77.77. New Zealand 52/3
19.4 Samuels to Taylor, SIX, plays the scoop and it goes all the way, it's not his favourite shot but he pulls it off superbly, full toss on the pads, bowled at 127kmph and he used the pace to scoop it over the fine-leg boundary for six, what a shot. New Zealand 137/6
19.6 Samuels to Bracewell, 1 run, OUT, full toss and it's flicked towards deep square leg, it's Super Over folks, they pick a single and Bracewell is run out on the second run, a direct hit from the deep DAJ Bracewell run out 1 (13m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 100.00. New Zealand 139/7
0.5 Southee to Samuels, six runs, all over, low full toss dispatched over deep midwicket, Guptil leaps but in vain as it evades him by inches, can't prevent it from going over the ropes. Takes the score to 19 and seals victory for West Indies
