England v New Zealand, 2nd ODI, Rose Bowl

Record-breaker Guptill Stun England

Southampton: Martin Guptill's majestic unbeaten 189 along with good contributions from Williamson, Taylor and McCullum helped New Zealand beat England by 86 runs at The Rose Bowl, Southampton on Sunday.

New Zealand lead 3-match series 2-0. The Black Caps have won the series, 2-0 up with one to play, ending England's unbeaten run at home, which stretched back to 2009. A second consecutive defeat sees England drop to fourth in the rankings, while New Zealand are up to seventh.

England's batsmen were as impotent as the bowlers, with Jonathan Trott top-scoring with 109 not out as the side slumped to a 86-run defeat.

The final match is on Wednesday.

Earlier, Martin Guptill made the highest score by a New Zealand batsman in a one-day international as England again paid the price for dropping him.

Guptill's 189 not out was the cornerstone of New Zealand's 359 for 3, their highest ODI total against England topping the 340 for seven they made in Napier in 2008.

The opener's innings surpassed Lou Vincent's previous New Zealand record of 172 against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo in 2005, and was the equal joint-fifth highest in history.

The 26-year-old Guptill's 103 not out at Lord's on Friday had powered New Zealand to a five-wicket win.

Guptill was again dropped on 13 with Chris Woakes once more the unlucky bowler. Woakes's first over on Sunday saw a Guptill pull go straight through Jonathan Trott's hands at mid-wicket.

That was the only chance Guptill gave in a 155-ball innings featuring two sixes and 19 fours that equalled West Indies' great Viv Richards 189 not out at Manchester in 1984, in a 55-over match, as the highest individual ODI score against England.

Together with Kane Williamson (55) and Ross Taylor (60) he shared partnerships of 120 and 109 respectively following the early loss of Luke Ronchi.

New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum, who won the toss on a typically good Southampton pitch, was 40 not out after adding an unbroken 118 in a mere 50 balls for the fourth wicket with Guptill.

James Anderson took two for 65 as he equalled Darren Gough's England record haul of 234 one-day international wickets.

Earlier, New Zealand have won the toss and elected to bat. They have made one change, with Doug Bracewell in for Tim Southee - not sure if that's rest or rotation.

England are unchanged.
