Santner and Neesham play decisive roles as New Zealand open with 13-run victory

New Zealand

7.3 to MJ Guptill, Oh my days, what a catch by Hetmyer! Banged in short outside off, Guptill cuts up and over and for all money the ball seems like going over deep point, with the wind. But Hetmyer stationed there, plucked his left arm out, caught the ball and made sure he did not go over the ropes. Stunning effort.. 62/1

7.4 to DP Conway, Two in two and another brilliant catch! All of a sudden Smith is on a hat-trick. Another short of length delivery down leg. Conway goes for a half-hearted pull, almost as if he was looking to help it towards fine leg. The ball instead catches the top edge and goes to the keeper Thomas, who was wrong-footed yet somehow threw himself to his left to snaffle it up.. 62/2

17.3 to KS Williamson, picks out the best fielder in the WI team! Back of a length ball angling into off. Williamson goes for the cross-batted pull from near waist high, and it goes to deep square leg. Walsh runs to his left from deep backward square leg, puts in some air time in his dive, and the ball sticks. Out for a 33-ball 47. 149/5
