Build-up

New Zealand are in a must-win situation considering that their first game, against Australia, was washed out and they only have one point. They need a win here to keep this campaign alive. And it's not the best of the moments to have a do-or-die clash - their opponents for tonight are hosts England who have barely put a foot wrong in the recent times. A win for England will guarantee a spot in the semifinal whereas a loss will jeopardise New Zealand's chances.

All said and done though, there is a massive rain threat, yet again! This could well be another start-stop game. Wonder if that will have any impact on the toss?

England though have suffered the Chris Woakes setback, but they welcome back an experienced Steven Finn into the squad. This will be his chance to deliver on the promise, writes Rob Johnston.

Toss coming up in few moments from now. Stay tuned!
