Weather intervention in Cardiff, and if as seems likely this ends the match the New Zealand will win on DLS and earn a share of the series: 1-1 with one match abandoned without a ball bowled.

Dean wins with a single of the second ball of the 49th over. England win by one wicket, Dean 31 not out, debutant Corteen-Coleman 3 not out at the other end, after a good bowling performance as well.

Scores level at Chester-le-Street, Corteen-Coleman with the single that levels them and brings stand-in skipper Dean back on to strike.

New Zealand all out for 210, the last wicket being a run out of comical awfulness involving Bree Illing and Rosemary Mair. New Zealand were 203-5 at one stage, so they really have fallen away horribly at the death.

Jodi Grewcock has her first international wicket - a filthy full toss that Melie Kerr smacked straight to Lauren Bell to go for 55. New Zealand 147-3 in the 35th over.

First international wicket for Corteen-Coleman, Plimmer trying to go big and failing to get the ball over Lauren Bell (Bell at 6'1" is probably not the best fielder to try to hit over!). New Zealand 43-2 in the 12th over.

First over in international cricket done for Corteen-Coleman and it was a good one - just two runs from it. New Zealand 39-1 after 10 overs.

Good ball from Filer finds the edge of Bates' bat and Amy Jones makes no mistake behind the stumps. New Zealand 7-1 after 1.5 overs, Bates gone for 6.

Almost game time at Chester-le-Street where England have won the toss and chosen to bat. Tilly Corteen-Coleman makes her debut for England, while Charlie Dean captains in the absence of Natalie Sciver-Brunt. Opening for New Zealand is Suzie Bates who made her international debut before Corteen-Coleman had even been born.
