In a significant development, the first T20I match between New Zealand and England at the Hagley Oval Stadium has been stopped because of rain. New Zealand won the toss and chose to bowl first, and their decision paid off as they took five English wickets quickly.
England were at 110 runs in 16.3 overs when rain interrupted the game, and the pitch is now covered.

According to Accuweather.com , conditions this evening are expected to be mostly cloudy, becoming partly cloudy later, with temperatures hovering around 6°C. Winds are forecasted from the west-southwest at 11 km/h, gusting up to 30 km/h, while cloud cover is predicted at 81 percent and there is a 25 percent chance of precipitation.
Although the likelihood of rain is currently low, any further showers could reduce the number of overs, and prolonged rain might even lead to the match being abandoned.
The on-field action before the interruption had already seen significant breakthroughs for New Zealand. England opener Phil Salt fell early for just 3 runs off 4 balls, followed by Jacob Bethell, who was dismissed for 15 off 13 balls by Matt Henry. New Zealand right-arm pacer Jimmy Neesham then removed England captain Harry Brook after he scored 20, and Tom Banton was also sent back to the pavilion by the New Zealand skipper, Mitchell Santner.
Notably, with the T20 World Cup scheduled next year in India and Sri Lanka, all teams are eager to refine their strategies and performances ahead of the marquee tournament.
