Jonny Bairstow and Harry Brook put New Zealand’s bowlers to the sword, before debutant Gus Atkinson took four wickets as England produced another dominant display to win the Second T20 at Old Trafford by 95 runs.
Just 48 hours after a comfortable seven-wicket victory in Durham, Jos Buttler’s side were again in control throughout, Atkinson claiming four-for-20, the best ever figures by an Englishman on T20I bow, as the tourists were rolled for 103 inside just 14 overs.
