Tickner to Brandon King, out Lbw!! Appeal for lbw and up goes umpire Allahudien Paleker's finger. King reviews it. 137kph, nip-backer from Tickner, King is rooted in his crease and gets beaten on the inside edge as he looks to defend it. Didn't account for the inward movement. Struck just above the knee-roll in front of the stumps. Over to ball-tracking and it's clipping the top of leg - umpire's call. After a wicketless hour, New Zealand get the breakthrough. It was a confident and a vociferous appeal from New Zealand
