Brilliant game in the end. Shame we (NZ) couldn't quite get over the line.

England dominating New Zealand ae? lol
Always feels nice to beat the Poms at their own game. Ross Taylor sensational.

England by all accounts blew it again by being too aggressive after Bairstow and Root got out.
It was incredibly poor. None of the middle order took time to get an eye in. To a man, they were desperate to cash in on a great batting strip and a small ground. Attacking cricket is great but a tad more restraint wouldn't go amiss.

Deciding match of the ODI series : New Zealand 37-2, 10 overs.
Very comfortable win. Looking good at the moment, woakes and bairstow in particular.
C'mon Ireland smash these windes

think they are, 6 ODI series wins in a row, won 9/10 too with a narrow loss in india. They do have the capacity to combust, but it is becoming less frequent thankfully. They'll go into the world cup favourites imo.
Actually that is very impressive. They could, though, have lost this series through sloppiness.
