The New Zealand vs England T20 series is well underway as Phil Salt and the team earn a record win in the second match. Salt (85) and captain Harry Brook (78) led the charge as England beat the Black Caps by 65 runs at the Hagley Oval, Christchurch, on Monday (October 20).England posted 236-4, with Salt and Brook racking up an impressive 129 runs off 74 for the third wicket. After the game, Brook – scored 78 off 35 – said the team were ‘calm and composed’ in their win.Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: “It is always nice to contribute and pleasing to do it with Phil, who has been very successful for us in this new era. We were just calm and composed, looked to manipulate the field and put pressure on the New Zealand bowlers. It was nice to hit a few out of the park.”It comes after an anticlimactic start to the series, with Saturday’s opener eventually abandoned due to rain. England will now take their 1-0 lead to Auckland for the third and final T20I match, to be played at Eden Park on Thursday (October 23).They then kick off the first of three ODIs on Sunday (October 26), in Mount Maunganui.
