The Oval witnessed an epic encounter with New Zealand defeating the home side by 13 runs (D/L method), which could have gone to either side. Southee and Boult's combination of brilliant athleticism with their presence of mind to take an outstanding catch in the long-on boundary ensured New Zealand's victory in the penultimate over of England's chase.

New Zealand managed to post a massive total of 398 with the sheer dominance of Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor. Taylor scored his 13th century by squandering 119*. He was well supported by Williamson, showing his majestic batting skills with 93 runs, missing out on a deserving 100. Grant Elliott and Luke Ronchi's cameo with the bat, in the end, took New Zealand total to 398.

England was revised to a target of 379 from 46 overs as rain took away few overs. They got off to a flier with the initiatives from the openers. Alex Hales manage to went past 50 before getting out to Santner. Eoin Morgan's stunning 47 balls 88 took England close to the total. 8th wicket partnership of 76 runs between Liam Plunkett ( 44 off 30) and Adil Rashid (34 off 26) reignited the spark of victory to some extent. But England's hope of an upset was ended with the denouement of Rashid's wicket in the penultimate over.
