NewZealand clinch series!!!
The final match between England and New Zealand was played at Lords. It was a must win for England which would make them level the series. England won the toss and chose to field first. Kiwis backed their strength and scored 266 runs which was a decent enough score to defend. Scott Styris and Jacob Oram played brilliantly scoring half centuries. Kiwis were able to restrict England to 215 and won the match. Only Owais Shah was able to score well, who made 69 runs. Tim Southee and Vettori picked up three each. Styris won the man of the match while Tim SOuthee was the man of the series. New Zealand won the Natwest Series 3-1.
