New Zealand were beaten by England by 115 runs in their final pool match at the under-19 cricket World Cup in Dubai overnight (NZT) and will now enter the second-tier playoff competition.
England made a slow start to their innings but posted 239 in their 50 overs, with Brett Randell taking 3-57 from 10 overs.
New Zealand's chase got off to a bad start and wickets fell regularly as they slumped to 114 all out in 36.1 overs. Opener Rakitha Weerasundara provided some resistance with 41 but was the only one of the top four to make double figures.
They finished third in their pool behind Sri Lanka and England with only one win over the United Arab Emirates and the highest they can finish at the 16-team competition is ninth.
They are likely to play Papua New Guinea, who are winless in Group A, in their next match on Sunday.
