Kabua Morea to Finn Allen, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! What a start from Kabua Morea! The umpires do go upstairs to check whether it carried or not. This is bowled on a good length and outside off stump, staying a bit low as well. Finn Allen doesn't move his feet and just throws his hands at it and ends up getting a cue end that goes down in front of the keeper. Kipling Doriga pouches it safely and the replays show that the ball did carry. Allen departs for a duck and Papua New Guinea will be very happy with that.

Alei Nao to Devon Conway, FOUR! Just a bit too wide for the keeper and it runs away to the fence as well. Good length on middle and leg, the seam wobbles away after pitching, and Devon Conway is caught a bit on the crease. Conway doesn't quite pull out of the late dab and the ball goes off the higher part of the bat and past the keeper into the deep third fence.

Alei Nao to Devon Conway, SIX! Picked up and dispatched! A gentle half volley on the pads, Devon Conway walks down the pitch and flicks it on the full with stellar timing, and gets the ball over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie.

Kabua Morea to Rachin Ravindra, OUT! CAUGHT! Kabua Morea comes back into the attack and picks up a big wicket right away. Morea comes from over the stumps and angles in a fuller delivery into the pads. Rachin Ravindra comes down the pitch and lifts the back leg, looking to loft the ball over deep mid-wicket but doesn't get the timing at all. The ball goes to mid-wicket and Semo Kamea comes in from the deep to hang on to the catch with both hands. A shaky start from New Zealand so far.

Alei Nao to Devon Conway, SIX! One hand off the handle but no problem! On a good length around middle, Devon Conway skips down the track and goes through with the lofted shot, hitting it with a straight bat and the ball travels over long on for a biggie.

Semo Kamea to Kane Williamson, FOUR! Pitched up full and outside off stump, Kane Williamson transfers his weight forward and drives it gloriously through covers and in front of the man at sweeper cover. The fielder dives across but fumbles and the ball goes into the fence. The fielder seems to be in some pain as well but hopefully, he is fine.

Chad Soper to Devon Conway, FOUR! Driven well! A bit too full and in the slot around off, Devon Conway drills it back past the bowler and to the left of mid off for a cracking boundary.

Chad Soper to Devon Conway, SIX! Clean strike from Devon Conway! Pitched up right in the slot and on the stumps, Conway frees his arms and hits through the line of the ball, dispatching it over the long on fence for a biggie. 14 off that over!

Semo Kamea to Devon Conway, OUT! PLUMB! Good length angling into the batter on middle and leg. Devon Conway looks to play this late and run this fine towards the deep third region but misses. The ball sneaks past the bat and clatters onto the back pad. The umpire wastes no time and gives him his marching orders. Devon Conway asks for a review but all reds on the Ball Tracker confirm the on-field decision.

Norman Vanua to Kane Williamson, FOUR! Short-pitched around off, Kane Williamson swivels and pulls this flat through square leg for four.

Semo Kamea to Daryl Mitchell, FOUR! Brilliantly picked up for four. Touch fuller on the pads, Daryl Mitchell picks it up and flicks this couple of bounces over the fence towards the deep mid-wicket region. Runs have started to come for the Kiwis now.

Semo Kamea to Daryl Mitchell, FOUR! The finishing line is in sight of the Kiwis now. Pitched up down the leg, Daryl Mitchell glances this wide of the keeper to his left for a boundary towards the fine leg region.

Semo Kamea to Daryl Mitchell, FOUR! DISPATCHED! Good length outside off, Daryl Mitchell walks down the track and lofts this over cover for a boundary more. New Zealand needs just 3 more runs to win this.
