England v New Zealand 2nd ODI at Edgbaston

ENG v NZ, Second ODI, Edgbaston: Rain forces abandonment of England-New Zealand ODI with no result

The second limited-overs international between England and New Zealand was abandoned because of persistent rain on Wednesday and declared a no result.
New Zealand only needed to face six more balls to have the match at Edgbaston count, but the umpires waved the players off around 7:15 p.m. local time with the Black Caps on 127-2 after 19 overs and the covers were brought on. Under the revised target using the Duckworth-Lewis system to determine rain-reduced matches, New Zealand only needed to reach 134-2 in 20 overs to win.
Earlier, England was 162 all out after being sent into bat by New Zealand after a four-hour 15-minute rain delay. The innings was originally reduced to 29, but that was lowered to 24 after a rain delay mid-innings. Players took a 30-minute break between innings and New Zealand's revised target, using the Duckworth-Lewis method, was 165.
England opener Luke Wright scored 52 from 38 balls, including two sixes and four boundaries and England captain Paul Collingwood also boosted the score with 37. Geoff Elliott took 3-23 on his New Zealand ODI debut and Tim Southee had two wickets in two balls in the final over to finish with 2-35. Under overcast skies, blustery conditions blew a bail off at the non-striker's end as Kyle Mills' strode in to deliver the first ball.
Two balls later, England was already a man down when Ian Bell miscued and lobbed a shot to Daniel Vettori, who ran back from mid-off to catch the opener on his home ground for a duck. Kevin Pietersen - whose innovative switch-hitting during his unbeaten 110 led England to a 114-run win in the first ODI on Sunday - only lasted 20 balls and 13 runs Wednesday when Vettori caught his attempted drive off the bowling of Michael Mason.
In reply, New Zealand opener Jamie How tried to clip a shot from Stuart Broad to the leg side, but it went straight to Shah at short midwicket for 16. Ross Taylor then put on 54 runs with Brendon McCullum before he was caught by Collingwood at deep midwicket for 25, leaving New Zealand at 79-2, needing 82 runs to win and playing under darkening skies. McCullum finished unbeaten on 60 and Scott Styris was 19 not out when play was stopped.
