England vs New Zealand Live Updates, T20 World Cup Super 8: Finn Allen and Tim Seifert opened the innings for New Zealand against England in Colombo on Friday. Meanwhile, England’s bowling attack, led by pacer Jofra Archer, will be eager to strike early and keep the Kiwis under pressure from the outset. Earlier, New Zealand skipper Mitchell Santner won the toss and elected to bat in their final Super 8 match of the 2026 T20 World Cup. The Blackcaps have retained the same playing XI that featured against Sri Lanka. England, however, have made one change, bringing in Rehan Ahmed in place of Jamie Overton. This remains a crucial contest for Santner and his side, as a victory today will seal their place in the semi-finals. England are already through, leaving just one spot up for grabs, with both New Zealand and Pakistan vying for it. (Live Scorecard)
