England v New Zealand, 1st ODI at Cardiff: What a difference a week makes. Last Friday, New Zealand’s batting was in a world of pain, bowled out in 14 overs. Tonight, they chased 292 in a canter at Cardiff, unbeaten tons for Conway and Mitchell to make it so, and have now knocked off the dual world champions three times on the trot. Jeremy Coney joins Adam to consider the result in the context of the World Cup, which begins in just four weeks from now.
