Jofra Archer Sends Ashes Warning with Fiery Spell but England Pay Price for Reckless Batting in New Zealand

Daryl Mitchell's unbeaten 56 and Blair Tickner's 4-34 helped New Zealand clinch the series, with England bowled out for 175, according to match reports.

  • On Wednesday, New Zealand cricket team beat England cricket team by five wickets in the second ODI in Hamilton, taking an unassailable 2-0 series lead.
  • Hampered by a top-order collapse, England cricket team were 143-7 midway and finished with a below-par 175, with reckless batting producing needless dismissals and no partnership over six overs or 38 runs.
  • Led by strong seam work, New Zealand's bowling featured Jofra Archer claiming 3-23 and Blair Tickner returning with 4-34, his best ODI figures after replacing injured Kyle Jamieson.
  • The series moves to Wellington on Saturday, with England captain Harry Brook disappointed by their batting and urging the side to dig deep and entertain in the third ODI.
  • Looking toward the Tests, Archer and Tickner's roles are notable as Archer's first outing since September 12 shows he is fit ahead of November 21, and Tickner's first start since May 2023 as a replacement.
