Zakary Foulkes, fresh from his four-fer in the series opener, saw the back of the other opener &#8211; Jamie Smith, in the sixth over. Joe Root&#8217;s stroke-filled start was then cut short by Tickner, who came into the XI in place of Matt Henry. Harry Brook walked out at 51 for 3 and once again looked like he&#8217;d be England&#8217;s saviour. He hit fours off Smith and Tickner and also launched Santner for a six over square leg. But his endeavour to repeat his Mount Maunganui heroics ended prematurely, courtesy a fantastic one-handed catch at backward point by Will Young. Before Santner dismissed him, Nathan Smith took out Jacob Bethell and Jos Buttler as England struggled at 105 for 6.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After a brief delay due to rain, the gloom set in on England&#8217;s batting as Jacob Duffy dismissed&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":535079,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4101],"tags":[743,169045,172963,1406,6046,393,172248,704,172962,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-535078","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cricket","8":"tag-743","9":"tag-2nd-odi","10":"tag-blair-tickner","11":"tag-cricket","12":"tag-daryl-mitchell","13":"tag-england","14":"tag-england-tour-of-new-zealand","15":"tag-new-zealand","16":"tag-rachin-ravindra","17":"tag-sports","18":"tag-uk","19":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115456601299767068","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535078","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=535078"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535078\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/535079"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=535078"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=535078"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=535078"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
