OUT! Another run-out! What's happening with New Zealand. This time it is Ross Taylor. Needless run this and Taylor falls short of the crease while attempting second run. Ross Taylor run out (Adil Rashid/Buttler) 28(42) 

England are right back in the game and are in control now. New Zealand needs partnership to bail them out of this slump. Meanwhile, Tom Latham has joined Ross Taylor in the middle.

Ross Taylor has joined Kane Williamson in the middle. And the Kiwi skipper picks his first boundary of the match. Both Williamson and Taylor hold the key for New Zealand.

OUT! Jofra Archer strikes. Martin Guptill fails once again. What a catch by Jos Buttler. New Zealand have lost both the openers now. England in control. M Guptill c Buttler b Jofra Archer 8(16)

Finally a boundary for New Zealand and it comes from Martin Guptill's bat. 73*, 25, 0, 35, 0, 5 and 20 have been the scores from Guptill thus far. New Zealand need one big from him today.

Good start this for England. Having lost a wicket early, New Zealand look under pressure as Kane Williamson is the new batsman in. No boundary yet for Kiwis.

Jofra Archer with the second over and he gives away just two runs. Now this is interesting, had Henry Nicholls opted for DRS he would have survive the Hawk-Eye confirmed that the ball was going over the stumps.

OUT! Henry Nicholls departs early! Chris Woakes traps him in front of the wickets. What a start this for England. Nicholls decides against taking the DRS. Henry Nicholls lbw b Woakes 0(1)

So, that's the end of England's innings. New Zealand will be happy to have restricted the hosts to 305. But it is the slowness of the wicket that might worry them now. Fingers crossed for New Zealand's chase! Do join us back for their response.

Some good work towards the end by Liam Plunkett and Adil Rashid. The duo has added 27 off 17 balls thus far. Good over this for England as Matt Henry concedes 13 runs.

Two overs remaining now and New Zealand have done well in these last over. England were threatening to post over 340 at one stage and now they will be to be contend with 300 maybe.
