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

Super Over
Epic win for West Indies and they have ensured New Zealand have been knocked out of the tournament. Taylor did his best, helping his team make 17, a tough ask but Southee bowled length and also bowled too full when it mattered.
Ross Taylor: We probably should have won it in normal time, but credit to West Indies. to score 18 of five balls is pretty awesome. When the first ball is a no ball that goes for six it ruins the over, that's cricket and we're going home now.
Sammy: I think we'll stay for a while after and watch the next game very closely. Marlon Samuels is my go to man in pressure situations, he's suffering from a bad shoulder so that's why he doesn't bowl more.
Sunil Narine is the Man of the Match. "It's nice to be back in the wickets and bowling good, hopefully we have another game to play. it was a total team effort. Marlon did a very good job bowling and then batted superbly."
That's all we have for you from this game but there's England v Sri Lanka beginning shortly and England must win that to make the semi-finals. do join us for that one. Cheers.

Who is it going to be for New Zealand? Southee it is. Both teams have brought in quicker substitute fielders for the Super Over. Kane Williamson is in for someone, and West Indies had Smith, who was there in the final over of the match as well.
"Excellent point by Simon Doull (@sdoull) - WI need only 17 to win, not 18, as they have hit more boundaries than NZ" A tie in the Super Over will mean West Indies will take home the points.
Gayle and Samuels are the two men West Indies have sent out. Fine leg up
SUPER OVER - END OF OVER17 runs
NZ: 17/0CRR: 17.00
Taylor's done an excellent job in the Super Over, West Indies have a tough task to chase this down now.

Samuels, is he bowling? He has the ball right now. Brendon McCullum and Ross Taylor are the two NZ batsmen. Samuels to bowl, not Narine.
