05:32 GMT: End of innings
End of the match: New Zealand won by 8 wickets
Man of the match: TG Southee
06:40 GMT: New Zealand won their 3rd pool match by thrashing England in a totally one-sided match to go on top of the points table.
06:40 GMT: The least said would be best for England fans who would be smarting after this massive loss but will be looking for a quick recovery from the current low in their sides' fortunes.
06:40 GMT: Firstly, the Kiwis bowled amazingly well as Southee took 7 wickets and just missed snatching the record from Glenn McGrath for the best bowling figures in World Cup matches. Man of the Match spearhead Tim Southee got swing and seam to end with 7-33 and proved too hot for England to handle.
06:41 GMT: Then we saw tremendous aggression from Brendon McCullum, who struck the ball from the middle of his bat right from the first ball and finally leaving the arena after smashing 77 off just 25 balls taking his team to success.
06:41 GMT: Stuart Broad and Steven Finn, who are England's main strike bowlers were brutally punished with an economy of 12 and 25 respectively, which provides plenty of food for thought for their manangement to focus on for their upcoming matches.
06:41 GMT: One can only appreciate the great swing bowling skills of Southee and Boult as both were in fine form and if they continue there is little doubt on New Zealand reaching the final of this mega event.
06:42 GMT: That is all we have for you today, we will be back tomorrow for the coverage of the match between Australia and Bangladesh at 22:00GMT, till then it is goodbye...
06:44 GMT: End of the session's play
