England vs New Zealand, 3rd T20I at Birmingham, ENG v NZ, Sep 03 2023 - Match Result

slower ball, full length, huge swipe, even more huge top-edge ... Seifert rushes round and completes a thumping Kiwi win!

swivels into the pull, to deep backward square

launched without gusto by Gus... down to long-on once more

outside off, bonked on the head for a single to long-off

belted across the line once more, it's all a bit of a holding pattern now. As soon as this pair connect properly, deep midwicket will be in the game

slower ball, back of a length, hoisted to the on-side, into no-man's land

low full toss, clipped to long-on with a waft of the bat

rolls the fingers on a full length, into the pads, flicked behind square

full length, attacking the blockhole, punched to mid-on off the back foot

back of a length, hacked on the up towards long-on, who intercepts on the bounce

slower ball, well directed, Atkinson chops his cut on the bounce to point

swishing pull out to deep midwicket, on the bounce. England reach 100 balls... which is a mini-achievement

back of a length, bashed back to the bowler

superb intercept at backward point! Another cuffing cut from Atkinson, who is connecting well now, but that was plucked on the bounce, low to his right

boshed on the back foot, into the off side

flat flog on the pull, inches short of square leg! Chapman had to watch that well, out of the sun and on the half-volley, but he got his body behind the line. Firm connection

very full, leg-sided, dabbed to midwicket

claws the pull from outside off, and Mitchell gets his second of the over! Had to work fractionally harder for this one, walking in off the rope on this occasion as Moeen got right underneath his launch for the stands. Another slower ball and Jamieson's comeback to the big time is looking very tasty

outside off, too wide on this occasion

pace off, and that's hit off stump without dislodging the bail! Atkinson's first ball in international cricket is an attempted pull to the slower ball, gets in a tangle, and the upshot is a kiss off the off stump, away to safety
