England vs New Zealand LIVE T20 World Cup cricket result and reaction as England keep hopes alive

Daryl Mitchell is at the crease.

Jimmy Neesham tries to lift Mark Wood over the leg-side, but he doesn’t have enough room to execute the shot and hangs it in the air for Sam Curran to catch. A big moment for England and Curran celebrates passionately.

Jimmy Neesham slaps Stokes’ final ball for four through the leg side. The required run rate is at 11.40.

Stokes comes into the attack for the first time today, and Phillips pulls fine over his shoulder for yet another boundary. He tries a ramp which fails and runs a single, but with the very next ball Williamson is gone mis-hitting to Rashid at short third man.

Glenn Phillips slogs Adil Rashid twice over the leg-side boundary and into the crowd, huge back-to-back sixes! These are potentially match-defining runs. Phillips adds another couple to bring up his 50 and this is a brilliant knock. His bludgeoning style is complementing Kane Williamson’s more methodical approach nicely at this stage of the innings.

Sam Curran is back into the attack, and he has half an appeal as Phillips swings blindly at a short ball. New Zealand keep the scoreboard ticking over but they need boundaries, and Curran doesn’t yield one.

A huge six! Phillips stands and delivers, half-volleying Mark Wood deep into the crowd. Moeen might be regretting that drop.

I’m still reeling from that drop. It was so bad that I can only conclude Moeen lost sight of it in the lights. Phillips drives a four off Livingstone as Rashid fails to stop it, then a top edge goes safe. England have unravelled a little bit and it’s game on.

Oh wow. Phillips skies one up in the air for Moeen Ali to catch simply at cover, but somehow he gets nowhere near it! The ball rolls down his chest, bypassing his waiting hands, and that’s a shocking drop.

Here is a little acceleration, as a few singles and twos are followed by a boundary off the final ball of the over from Williamson. Rashid will continue.
