18.6
Clayton Floyd to Ish Sodhi, SIX, Netherlands are losing the plot in these death overs! Got to credit Sodhi too though, this is fab ball-striking on a surface where even the reputed batters haven't gotten going. Gets a drag-down, he sits back and nails the pull over deep square leg. 20 off the over! NZ getting that final finishing kick here
18.5
Clayton Floyd to Ish Sodhi, FOUR, and there goes Sodhi again, with his dancing shoes and heaving into the gap at mid-wicket. Splits deep mid-wicket and long-on with perfection. Almost went all the way
18.4
Clayton Floyd to Ish Sodhi, SIX, these are priceless runs for NZ! Seemed like a mishit from Sodhi initially but he's cleared deep square leg quite comfortably. Wow! Came down the track, converted this into a leg stump half-volley and just played a lovely pick-up shot. Got it right off the meat of the blade
18.3
Clayton Floyd to Santner, 1 run, slower and a fraction shorter, Santner gets on the back foot and mistimes the cut towards point
18.2
Clayton Floyd to Santner, 2 runs, quicker and fuller around off, Santner slog-sweeps this flat into the gap at wide long-on where the fielder makes a fine slide to prevent the boundary
18.1
Clayton Floyd to Ish Sodhi, 1 run, down the track goes Sodhi for the slog, nowhere to the pitch of this though, and gets a thick under-edge backward of square on the leg-side
5.6
Clayton Floyd to Guptill, 1 run, fuller and wider, Guptill reaches out and drills this down to long-off
5.5
Clayton Floyd to Guptill, no run, quicker one on middle and leg, Guptill stays on the back foot and defends
5.4
Clayton Floyd to Cleaver, out Caught by Bas de Leede!! Beautifully bowled by Floyd! Sensed the charge from the batter and dragged his length back, getting this to dip on Cleaver who charged down the pitch for a mighty slog over long-on. Only to slice this straight up and de Leede from extra cover trekked backwards to take a fine overhead catch. Mid-off was back at the fence, so it was crucial for de Leede to move swiftly and he did so. Cleaver c Bas de Leede b Clayton Floyd 2(9)

Clayton Floyd to Guptill, no run, on the shorter side, Guptill stays back and punches this well but can't beat point
5.1
Clayton Floyd to Guptill, SIX, crunched! Guptill is getting a move on now. Times his charge well, gets to the pitch and lofts it clean over the long-on fence with ease. Mid-on was up, so a percentage shot and the ball is out of the ground
3.6
Clayton Floyd to Guptill, 1 run, fired on middle and leg, whipped away past mid-wicket
3.5
Clayton Floyd to Guptill, FOUR, fumble in the inner ring and NZ gets a handy boundary. Was on the shorter side, Guptill stayed back to cut this but cover-point should have stopped it after having gotten across to his left. Didn't time his fall properly and let it through
