**England vs New Zealand Live Score, T20 World Cup semi-final updates:**What an eventful over. A brilliant one for the Kiwis. Neesham swings the first ball for a SIX! He again looks to swing it across the line but misses but they run through for a quick two. Jordan then drags it down the leg side for a WIDE. Neesham then smashes one to long on for a FOUR. Jordan then drags one on the off side for another WIDE. Neesham then swings one again, Bairstow from long one hares to his left, catches a brilliant catch relays it to Livingstone. It looks a brilliant catch. The umpire refers it upstairs but replays show Bairstow has touched the ropw ehile taking that brilliant catch. Another SIX. Neesham then mistimes his heave again but it falls in the gap between long on and deep mid-wicket. The fielders misjudged it and they get two. Neesham gets an inside edge off the last ball for a single to make it 23 off the over. NZ need 34 off 18. Preview: Title favourites but injury-hit England will bank on their X-Factor players to upstage a remarkably consistent New Zealand in the first semi-final of the T20 World Cup here on Wednesday. England were the pre-tournament favourites and played like one for the majority of the Super 12 stage. However, their loss in the final group game to South Africa showed that they were not an invincible outfit. The absence of Jason Roy, who suffered a calf injury against the Proteas, is a big blow to the team heading into the semi-finals. Roy and Jos Buttler made arguably the most destructive opening pairing of the tournament.

AP Photo[/caption] With Roy ruled out of World Cup, there is a strong possibility that Jonny Bairstow will be promoted to bat alongside Buttler, who will be expected to play another match-winning knock on Wednesday. A big positive is that most of the batters have spent valuable time in the middle going into the knockout game. The role of spinners Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid will be massive as they will aim to provide the wickets in the powerplay and middle overs. Players will also have the 2019 ODI World Cup final at the back of their minds where both teams could only be separated by a boundary countback rule. Since then, New Zealand have displayed that they are not just a very consistent team in ICC events, they can also go all the way with their triumph in the World Test Championship final. The “nice guys” of world cricket look good to finish first in this competition too.

Among ‘top-8’ teams, South Africa are the only team not to reach final yet. #NZvENG
After 18 overs,New Zealand 147/5 ( Daryl Mitchell 53 , )
After a dot to start off, Neesham swings it over deep mid-wicket for a six. He then takes a single. Mitchell then pulls it over deep mid-wicket to get to his FIFTY!. He takes a single to long off. Rashid then removes Neesham as Morgan takes a very good catch at extra cover. 14 runs and a wicket off it. 20 needed from 12.
After 17 overs,New Zealand 133/4 ( Daryl Mitchell 46 , James Neesham 20)
What an eventful over. A brilliant one for the Kiwis. Neesham swings the first ball for a SIX! He again looks to swing it across the line but misses but they run through for a quick two. Jordan then drags it down the leg side for a WIDE. Neesham then smashes one to long on for a FOUR. Jordan then drags one on the off side for another WIDE.

After 16 overs,New Zealand 110/4 ( Daryl Mitchell 46 , James Neesham 1)
What a brilliant over from Livingstone. He’s getting it to turn out in the middle. He gets Phillips first ball, caught at long off. Then beats Mitchell’s bat a couple of times. Just two singles and a WIDE in that over. He finishes with 4-0-22-2. Just three runs off the over. Coule be a game-changing one. 57 needed off 24.
After 15 overs,New Zealand 107/3 ( Daryl Mitchell 45 , Glenn Phillips 2)
100 up for the Kiwis. A decent over for them. After four runs off the first three balls, Mitchell gets a much-needed boundary as he looks to pull one but gets a top edge over the keeper’s head. He goes for another pull but mistimes it to deep mid-wicket for just a single. Phillips takes a single off the last ball to make it 10 off the over. NZ chipping away. NZ need 60 off 30 balls.
After 14 overs,New Zealand 97/3 ( Daryl Mitchell 37 , Glenn Phillips 0)
A brilliant over at this stage from Livingstone. After giving away just three runs off the first three balls, he built the pressure and took the wicket of Conway by having him stumped. He varied his pace well and gave away just 5 runs. Clever bowling. 70 needed off 36 balls.
After 13 overs,New Zealand 92/2 ( Daryl Mitchell 35 , Devon Conway (W) 44)
Another good over for the Kiwis. Jordan nearly pulls off a brilliant fielding effort as Mitchell lofts it to long off but the ball hits the ropes and Mitchell gets a SIX. There are three singles, a leg bye and a two off the rest five balls to make it 12 runs off the over. NZ need 75 from 42
After 12 overs,New Zealand 80/2 ( Daryl Mitchell 28 , Devon Conway (W) 40)
Was turning out to be a good over but then Conway got the boundary off the penultimate ball to release some pressure. The first four balls yielded just two runs. There were two dots and a potential run out chance which England missed as the fielder didn’t score the direct hit. Conway then thumped the fifth ball through extra cover for a well placed FOUR. The last ball goes for a single as Kiwis take 7 off the over.
After 11 overs,New Zealand 73/2 ( Daryl Mitchell 28 , Devon Conway (W) 33)
A very good over for the Kiwis. A much needed pressure release. The first ball is a touch short, Mitchell smashes it straight down the ground for a FOUR. A single follows and then Wood oversteps to deliver a NO BALL! Their first of the tournament and in the process they run through for a leg bye. Mitchell swings hard off the FREE HIT but gets an inside edge onto the thigh pad for a single. Conway then charges and hammers a SIX over backward point. A single follows and then Wood bowls a bouncer which Mitchell looks to upper cut but misses. 15 off the over.
After 10 overs,New Zealand 58/2 ( Daryl Mitchell 22 , Devon Conway (W) 26)
Mitchell and Conway have built a nice little partnership for the third wicket so far, but the asking rate will start to worry the Kiwis now with just one boundary coming their way in the last four overs. The England bowlers have been spot on so far, and will look to continue that approach in the next half of the chase.
After 8 overs,New Zealand 45/2 ( Daryl Mitchell 18 , Devon Conway (W) 17)
Mark Wood’s brought into the attack after the powerplay and is hitting those big numbers on the speed gun right away, his second delivery almost touching 150 clicks. Tidy over from Rashid next up. Nine from the last two. Has been a slow, steady stand so far.
After 6 overs,New Zealand 36/2 ( Daryl Mitchell 12 , Devon Conway (W) 14)
Things starting to look positive for the Kiwis at the end of the powerplay. Mitchell collects a boundary off Woakes in the latter’s third over on the trot, while new batter Conway collects two fours off Rashid in the sixth as spin is finally brought into play.
After 4 overs,New Zealand 18/2 ( Daryl Mitchell 4 , Devon Conway (W) 4)
Things get even worse for the Black Caps with the departure of their captain Kane Williamson, who perishes while looking to scoop towards fine leg off Woakes, who bowls out a wicket maiden. A wide and a boundary conceded by Jordan next over.
After 2 overs,New Zealand 13/1 ( Daryl Mitchell 4 , Kane Williamson (C) 5)
Just the start England were looking for. Guptill collects a boundary off the first ball to begin confidently, but perishes two balls later as Woakes gets the breakthrough. Skipper Williamson nearly chops the ball onto his stumps off Jordan’s bowling in the next over.
Strange innings from England. Just four sixes and never really got going but setting NZ a target of 167 gives them a chance - especially factoring in the pressure of chasing in a semi-final #T20WorldCup
