England's super six pack

Stuart Broad is hoping the record-breaking victory over New Zealand is a sign of special things to come from his England Twenty20 team.

In a six-hitting spectacular at Eden Park in Auckland yesterday, the tourists finished streets ahead with 15 of the 23 sixes struck – many over the short straight boundaries at this venue.

After Eoin Morgan and Luke Wright had powered the visitors to 214 for seven, 12 runs more than England have ever made in the shortest format, Broad's career-best four for 24 helped finish the job.
