When England won the toss and put New Zealand in to bat they had a solid start with the first wicket falling at a score of 75 with Martin Guptill and Hamish Rutherford making 47 and 40  runs respectively.After them it was all about Brendon McCullam who made sure he batted close to the end of the innings to push the total to 192 in their allotted 20 overs.He made 74 of just 38 balls.

While Bowling England were a bit expensive with Stuart Broad going for 53 runs in his allotted four overs.The pick of the bowlers for them was Jade Dernbach who picked up 3 wickets but he too was expensive and gave away 38 runs in his four overs.

England didn't have the best start with their power hitter Alex hales falling when the score was just 9.Luke Wright falling to the next ball and Jonny Bairstow making just 8 didn't help their cause either.Jos Buttler gave some stability to the innings making 54 runs and was supported by James Tredwell who made 22 but that was not good enough and the innings crumbled with England loosing their 10 wickets for a score of 137 runs.

New Zealand Bowlers were quite reasonable and were not as expensive as England.Their pick of the bowlers was James Franklin who picked up four wickets.

To sum it all up England did not bowl well in the England Vs New Zealand 2nd T20i held on 12/02/2013 which led to their downfall.
