Ben Stokes' 63 not out backed up an excellent fielding performance as England beat New Zealand by six wickets to level the one-day series at 1-1.

England took three fine catches and claimed four run-outs to dismiss the hosts for 223 in Tauranga.

In reply, the tourists lost two early wickets but Stokes put on 88 with captain Eoin Morgan, who scored 62.

Jos Buttler made an unbeaten 36 off 20 balls as he and Stokes sealed victory with 12.1 overs to spare.

All-rounder Stokes, playing his second match after five months out of the side following an incident outside a Bristol nightclub, was named man of the match after also taking two wickets and being involved in two run-outs.
