    15.6 taken at midwicket! Lawes strikes. It's another short one, Nicholls looks to pull but can't clear the ring. Taken above the head with a little jump 80/1

    18.5 gone this time!. He's getting the speed right, holding it back, full at the stumps and grips a touch. Young looking to go to the on side, takes a leading edge and loops back for a simple return catch 96/2
    24.3 what delivery, a ripper from Lawes! That's why they've picked him. Pitches this around leg stump stump, spins sharply - huge turn! - past the outside edge as Chapman comes out of his crease. Hope gathers and whips off the bails. Big celebrations, including from Sammy in the dressing room. Fantastic bowling from the 19-year-old. He'll want to frame that one, a dream delivery for a left-arm wristspinner 125/3
    45.2 Holes out to deep midwicket! Back of a length ball angling in and he looks to deposit it into the stands but doesn't make a clean connection. The fielder did not have to move much as it landed right under his throat. A big breakthrough for WI at this stage. 243/6
    32.3 Big appeal and given! That turned back sharply into Latham after pitching on length on off to hit his back leg. It appeared to have struck right in front. Latham has reviewed it right away. There is no bat involved and all three lights are red. Perfect start for WI after drinks. 169/4
    43.2 Lawes has his third! Bracewell had been struggling against spin and he decided to play yet another reverse sweep but it doesn't come of the middle of his bat and travels to third, inside the circle, who plucks it diving forward. It was pitched full on off. The third umpire has had a long look at it and has declared it a clean catch. 234/5
    49.3 Campbell takes an easy catch! Back of a length ball angling away and Santner looked to flat bat it over mid off. He was done for the pace as he failed to hit from the middle of his bat. 266/9
    47.2 Umpire takes his time to raise his finger. Length ball, angling in, and it thuds onto his front pad right in front of stumps. Joseph has been excellent in his comeback spell. 251/7
    48.4 It was on the cards. Lands a quicker arm ball on length and Duffy was nowhere close to connecting the slog sweep. Not much of a celebration from the bowler. 256/8
    49.5 NZ bowled out! Perfect yorker smashes into the offstump. Fisher goes for a ramp but he is beaten for pace. Alzarri Joseph has provided a perfect ending to his captain. 267/10

    4.5 In the air and he takes it. Bangs it hard into the surface and Campbell looks to pull him but the ball balloons to Nathan Smith to fine leg after taking the leading edge. Smith reverse cups it. Duffy has been looking to work with the uneven bounce in the pitch and it has worked for him. 28/1
    18.1 edged, gone! Back of a length outside off, think Auguste was looking to take this to the on side, a pretty thick outside edge and a very neat catch from Latham. Would have been better playing straight 92/2
    43.4 Oh, Keacy Carty, what have you done? Nathan Smith reverse cups that one at deep midwicket. It was full at stumps and he went for a slog sweep but did not put enough firepower in it to take it over the rope. That can be a big wicket at this stage. 223/3
