England secured a dramatic four-wicket victory over New Zealand in the Twenty20 World Cup Super Eights, chasing down a target of 160 with three balls remaining. The win propelled England to the top of Group Two, having won all three of their matches.
New Zealand posted 159-7 after a strong start, but England's spinners tightened the run flow. Despite struggles in England's top order, a rapid 44-run partnership between Rehan Ahmed and Will Jacks, including 22 runs from the 18th over, sealed the victory for the two-time champions.
