ICC MT20 WC, 2026 R.Premadasa Stadium, Colombo

19.3: Matt Henry to Will Jacks, FOUR! A boundary will be more than enough for England as they have crossed a line with a smile on their faces. Henry bowls his third consecutive bouncer on middle. Will Jacks rocks back and pulls it late but through the short fine leg region for four runs. ENGLAND BEAT NEW ZEALAND BY 4 WICKETS.

19.2: Matt Henry to Rehan Ahmed, Another bouncer, on middle. Rehan Ahmed skips down the track and hammers it down to deep mid-wicket for another single. 3 required off 4 balls!

19.1: Matt Henry to Will Jacks, Matt Henry scoots from over the wickets and bangs a bouncer, on off, Will Jacks pulls it to deep mid-wicket and gets a single. New Zealand desparetely need a wicket, or a dot delivery here. 

18.6: Mitchell Santner to Rehan Ahmed, SIX! Rehan, O Rehan! That's what Pakistan would be singing. What a quality shot. Tossed up, outside off, Rehan Ahmed comes down the track and looks to go inside out. He is not to the pitch of the ball but still, goes through with his shot. It seems a bit mistimed but somehow, the power on the shot carries the ball way over the long off fielder! 16 from the over, 38 in the last 2!

18.5: Mitchell Santner to Will Jacks, Outside off, punched through point for a single.

18.4: Mitchell Santner to Will Jacks, This is good from England and for once, Mitchell Santner shows some emotions. He was stone-faced and motionless even when Glenn Phillips was jumping up and down on dismissing Harry Brook, but now, seems to be frustrated. Landed outside off, Will Jacks goes back and punches it past cover once again, to the left of long off. Once again, Rehan charges back for the second at the non-striker's end and Santner collects the throw and removes the bails off in disgust.

18.3: Mitchell Santner to Will Jacks, Flat and short, wide outside off, Will Jacks slaps it to the left of the long on fielder and gets a couple of runs. 

18.2: Mitchell Santner to Rehan Ahmed, Mitchell Santner drags his length back, on the sixth stump. Rehan Ahmed shuffles wide across the stumps and bunts it to cover to get a single.

18.1: Mitchell Santner to Rehan Ahmed, FOUR! The penultimate over starts off with a boundary. The pressure is on the Kiwi skipper. Santner pitches it fuller, but way wide outside off, around the tramline. Rehan Ahmed covers the stumps and reverse sweeps it aerially, over the backward point region for four runs. 

17.6: Glenn Phillips to Will Jacks, FOUR MORE! 22 FROM THE OVER! How costly will this turn out to be as the match ends? Short, around middle, Will Jacks goes back and drags the pull through square leg. Lockie Ferguson at deep backward square leg charges to his left, dives but the ball just goes past his despairing dive!

17.5: Glenn Phillips to Will Jacks, FOUR! 'England need one more boundary in this over,' chirped Ian Smith on air just before this ball. And Jacks obeys him. A full toss, on middle, Jacks comes forward and hammers this past the non-striker. Long on is pretty wide and cannot get to the ball!

17.4: Glenn Phillips to Will Jacks, SIX! VIOLENCE! Tossed up, outside off, Will Jacks comes down the track, gets to the pitch of the ball and flicks it casually. But such is the power that the ball travels over the fielder at deep mid-wicket! 29 more needed from 14 balls!

17.3: Glenn Phillips to Rehan Ahmed, Flatter and shorter, on middle, Rehan Ahmed reverse sweeps it from the inner part of his bat to backward point. Single taken.

17.2: Glenn Phillips to Rehan Ahmed, SIX! Shot of authority! Flighted, fuller, on off and middle. Rehan Ahmed charges down the track to get to the pitched area of the ball and smokes it over the long on fence for a 94-meter biggie.

17.1: Glenn Phillips to Will Jacks, Phillips pitches it outside off and turning in. Will Jacks shuffles across the stump to heave it away, but takes a blow on his body. The ball rolls to the leg side and the batter gets a leg bye.
