Group C, Match 2, ENG vs NZ: New Zealand beat England by 6 wickets
Scott Styris and Jacob Oram guided New Zealand to a convincing win against the erratic England. New Zealand competed with defiance and completed the win in just 41 overs. Scott Styris made 87 runs and Jacob Oram made 63 runs.
Jacob Oram made a prolific fifty as New Zealand moved close to the victory target. Orams half century came in 68 balls. Earlier, Scott Styris smashed a credible half-century to bleak Englands chances of winning this match. Styriss fifty came in 70 balls. Brought into the attack for the first time in the World Cup, it took Monty Panesar just two balls to claim his first wicket. Jamie Dalrymple took the catch offered to him by Craig McMillan. McMillan made 27 runs from 34 balls.
Reported Earlier: A fantastic rearguard action by England help them reach 209 for seven against New Zealand in a Group C match at Beausejour, St Lucia on Friday.
Put into bat by Kiwi skipper Stephen Fleming, the English got off to a disastrous start losing Ed Joyce with the just the second delivery from James Franklin. He was caught by wicketkeeper Brendon McCullum for naught.
Stephen Fleming won the toss and put the English into bat. Heavy rains in the morning delayed the start of the day's proceedings.
New Zealand captain Stephen Fleming will have revenge very much on his mind when the Black Caps open their World Cup campaign against England here at Beausejour on Friday.
Both teams were involved in the triangular series in Australia last month where England, after crushing defeats against both opponents, came from behind to defeat the hosts and reigning world champions 2-0 in the final. With the Test sides odds-on favourites to qualify from a Group C also featuring Canada and Kenya, Friday's match has added significance. Assuming they each do make it to the second phase, the winners of this match will carry two points forward into the Super Eights.
