England begin their ODI series in New Zealand on Saturday coming off a 2-0 series win in the Twenty20 games.
The fortunes of England's test and one day sides seem to be heading in opposite directions at the moment. The ODI side are improving, winning in Australia a year ago and also in Sri Lanka towards the end of the year, whilst the test side had a very poor 2007, with the only series win coming against the West Indies. A win in New Zealand would be a boost...

Shocking batting performance...
I was surprised Mascarenhas was left out after what he did in the Twenty20 matches...

And our bowlers didn't turn up? They didn't do well but you can't really put the blame on them when they've got nothing to defend...

Back in the series after a 6-wicket victory.
New Zealand were 95-6 at one stage but recovered to 234-9 with 88 from Oram.
England batsmen had a shaky start with another run out (Mustard for 18) but Bell and Pietersen steadied things with Bell scoring 73. When they went, Collingwood and Shah were able to see England home with 3 overs to spare, Collingwood hitting an unbeaten 70 from 50 balls.

Phil Mustard played a blinding innings aka Gilchrist

Mustard hit 83 off 74 balls. Collingwood reached his 50 in just 24 balls, the fastest 50 by an English player in a ODI.
For New Zealand, How hit 139 from 116 balls before being run out.
Some bizarre things going on out there. Owais Shah bowled 7 overs and took 1 for 46. Luke Wright bowled the final over of the match, having not bowled at all in the innings...

Apparently it's the 2nd time that England and New Zealand have tied an ODI at that ground.
And slightly OT, but I noticed this laughable result in the qualifying for the ICC Women's World Cup:
Bermuda 13 all out (18 overs) - 10 of their runs were extras South Africa 15-0 (0.4 overs) - 9 of their runs were wides

Deciding match tonight 1AM start on sky sports, to draw 2-2 from the position we were in would be great.
