This is a crucial game for NZ who lost the first game against England. Given that both sides have struggled against Australia, games between them take on even greater importance and will decide which team goes thru to meet Australia in the best of three finals. The teams play each other 4 times in the group stages.
Monty’s back for England and Bond and Jacob Oram return for NZ.

Vettori to Flintoff, OUT, got him! Flintoff goes! Vettori deserved that wicket, having bowled really beautifully. That was a great delivery, tempting Flintoff into a big whoosh, he takes the faintest of inside edges and McCullum does well to pouch that with two hands
