Match Ended   
195/9 (50.0/50)
82 (33.0/50)
Australia beat New Zealand by 113 runs
Right then, Australia have clinched this ODI series along with 10 more World Cup Super League points. We have one more game to go in this series and New Zealand would be hoping to end on a high and salvage some pride in that game. It will be played on Sunday, 11th of September at the same venue, Cazaly's Stadium, Cairns. It will start at 9.50 am IST (4.20 am GMT). Join us early though for the bulid-up. Till then, it's goodbye and cheers!
Mitchell Starc is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his all-round performance. He says that he feels he was too involved in the game for his liking as he would have like to see the batters do their job. Adds that it was still a very good win for the team. Claims that they knew that if they hung in there they would be able to get to a decent total. Mentions that they are a calm group and were clinical with the ball. Admits that the pitch was not easy to bat on as it was fairly slow and they bowled with discipline. Credits Sean Abbott for waiting in the wings and then coming out to bowl four maidens on the trot. Shares the credit with Adam Zampa for his fifer and Josh Hazlewood for doing Josh things.
Kane Williamson, the skipper of New Zealand says that this was not the best effort with the bat from them and adds that Australia were brilliant and they did not apply themselves well. Says that the surface was tricky and it was not easy to chase this down and they tried to take the game deep. Tells that they need to apply themselves better and it was not the usual ODI wicket and they could have done better. Mentions that everyone has a mind of their own and makes their own decisions but they need to reflect on this loss and have some conversations. Says that there will be a new surface in the next game and they need to adjust to that surface quickly in the next game.
Aaron Finch, the skipper of Australia says that it has been a tough outing, the first 40 overs were difficult and the tail-enders showed them how to bat. Admits that they hung in there and Starc did well at the end. Credits the bowlers for being outstanding. Adds that they bowled with a lot of discipline and it is a great win. Informs that the wicket became slower as the game progressed and as the scoreboard pressure builds, it gets difficult to score runs. Claims that Adam Zampa got the rewards but the game was set up before that. Adds that they needed to be impressive in the Poweplay and that was the best chance they had, to get ahead in the game. Says that the trick is to be positive  and regardless of the position they are in, they want to come out aggressive.
Time for the Presentation...
Adam Zampa is down for a quick chat. He says that he didn’t bowl at his best in this game but he is happy to get wickets and adds that it happens sometimes. Tells that they had a tough work with the bat and the guys bowled quite well with the new ball and tells that he was not sure about the dew. Signs off by saying that it feels good to wrap up the series and win against the number 1 side in the world.
Earlier, in the game it was the late charge by Australian tail-enders that took them to close to 200 after their top order crumbled yet again against the top-class bowling of Kiwis. Mitchell Starc who scored 38 runs had handy partnerships with Zampa and Josh Hazlewood and that gave some momentum to Australia going into the break. Also, let's not forget the 61 runs Steven Smith scored when Boult and company were going great guns. Boult was the pick of the bowlers with four wickets but he and rest of the New Zealand camp will be very disappointed with how they messed up the chase with the bat.
Well, Australia have done what we have been used to seeing them doing over the years. They are known for their fighting effort when chips are down and that is exactly what we saw in this game. Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood showed great intensity with the new ball and Starc got a big wicket of Martin Guptill early which set the tone. Sean Abbott then was absolutely brilliant and took two wickets in his first over and bowled four maidens on trot to put New Zealand right on the back foot. Adam Zampa then joined the party and ended with a five-wicket haul to seal this game and series for Australia.
New Zealand would have been the happier side coming into the second half. However, the way they went about this chase was quite surprising to say the least. They lost Martin Guptill early and Conway and Tom Latham also could not last long. With three wickets down, the skipper Kane Williamson went completely in the shell. Daryl Mitchell at the other end also could not get going and after chewing up lot of deliveries, Kane Williamson departed at the score of 17 from 58 balls in which he played 47 dot balls. Once, he departed Daryl Mitchell also could not survive for long and they kept on losing wickets at regular intervals and ended up falling short by 113 runs in a chase of 196 here. The problem for the Kiwis was the lack of self belief they showed after losing three early wickets and they surely are a better batting unit than they showed in this game. Let's hope they come back stronger.
Australia take an unassailable lead of 2-0 in this three-match ODI series! They have done that with another superb bowling effort. Have to say, the bowling effort in this match by the Aussies is right up with the best bowling performances we have seen in recent times. New Zealand have been waiting for 13 years for that ODI win against Australia in Australia and they will have to continue that waiting game as they have crumbled to another loss here.

Adam Zampa To Trent Boult OUT!
OUT! LBW! It's all over! New Zealand have been bowled out for just 82! Adam Zampa flights a googly really full and pitching on off, Trent Boult looks to sweep this one but is early into the shot. The ball goes on to hit the pads. The Aussies think it is all over and after some contemplation, the umpire finally raises his finger. Trent Boult decides to review this and why not? There is no inside edge as confirmed by Snicko and Ball Tracking shows umpire's call on wicket's hitting as the ball is just clipping the leg stump. The on-field decision remains and Adam Zampa gets his five-wicket haul. What a performance this has been by the bowling unit of Australia. They win by 113 runs.

Adam Zampa To Matt Henry OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Adam Zampa gets his fourth wicket now! Matt Henry departs now. This is tad shorter and on middle. Henry goes back and works it aerially towards mid-wicket. The substitute fielder Ashton Agar takes the catch. Can Adam Zampa take a five-wicket haul here?
Drinks break. Well, it has been one way traffic so far and Australia are just two wickets away now from winning this series. New Zealand stil need 124 runs and have to say, it has been a very poor batting effort from them. They went into their shell after losing couple of wickets early and  just could not gain any momentum after that. It looks like a mere formality from hereon. Let's see how quickly the Aussies go about their business now.

He serves this on a fuller length and angles the ball into the stumps, Michael Bracewell looks to flick this leg side but does not connect well and the ball hits the pads. The ball lobs into the air and Glenn Maxwell at backward point comes running forward and takes a fine catch. There is a massive appeal for LBW initially but the umpire remains unmoved. As soon as the catch is taken he raises the finger. Snicko and Hotspot show a faint inside edge and Michael Bracewell walks back to the shed. Tim Southee is the next batter in.

NOT OUT! Adam Zampa tosses this up, on off. James Neesham tries to sweep it but misses and is rapped on the pads. Adam Zampa in hope of another wicket makes a loud appeal. However, the umpire this time says no. Australians though are pretty confident and they take the review. The Hotspot shows no bat there. However, the Ball Tracking shows that the ball is missing the stumps. So the original decision stays and the New Zealand camp will be relieved here.
James Neesham makes his way out to the crease and has a long way to go to finish the game for New Zealand.

Adam Zampa To Daryl Mitchell OUT!
OUT! LBW! Adam Zampa gets another one and things are looking quite bleak for New Zealand now. Daryl Mitchell departs and sadly for New Zealand, this chase is going nowhere at the moment for them. This is tossed up, on off. Daryl Mitchell gets across and tries to reverse-sweep it. He, however, misses. The ball hits his pads and there is a huge appeal and the umpire eventually raises his finger. Daryl Mitchell after consulting his partner takes the review but it does not make any difference as the Snicko shows no bat there and the Ball Tracking shows three reds as well. Daryl Mitchell has to take that long walk back to the pavilion.

Adam Zampa To Kane Williamson OUT!
OUT! LBW! Kane Williamson's labored knock has come to an end! Adam Zampa bowls a loopy full toss in line with the stumps, Kane Williamson sees an opportunity to score runs and his eyes light up. He looks to heave this into the leg side but misses the ball altogether. The ball goes on to hit the pads right in front of the wicket and Adam Zampa runs off in celebration. The umpire raises his finger and after long consideration, Kane Williamson decides to review. Hotspot shows there is no bat involved and Ball Tracking has umpire's call on wicket's hitting. The onfield decision remains and Kane Williamson has to depart. Big wicket for the Aussies. New Zealand are going nowhere in their chase here.
Change of ends for Adam Zampa. He replaces Sean Abbott.

DRINKS! A well-earned break for the Aussies here! They have definitely come out to fight and have had a stranglehold on the Kiwi batters. They have taken three crucial wickets and are conceding less than 2 runs per over. Kane Williamson has spent a considerable amount of time at the wicket facing several dot balls and Daryl Mitchell has gotten off to a watchful start as well. A lot will depend on them as they look to chase down what now seems like a commanding total.

This one lands around off and nips back in. Daryl Mitchell tries to defend it but he misses and the ball hits him on the pads. However, it looked like the impact was outside off and the Ball tracking confirmed the same.

Mitchell Starc To Kane Williamson
Oh, comedy of errors there! After such a big mix-up Kane Williamson still survives! Starc bowls it on a length, on off and Kane Williamson pushes it to covers. He sets off for a single straightaway but Conway is hesitant at the start. However, he then responds but both batters stop again in the middle of the pitch. In the meanwhile, Sean Abbott runs towards the ball and fumbles a bit. Conway and Kane Williamson then both try to run towards the batter's end but Conway stops after seeing his captain charging towards that end. The throw is off target at the batter's end as Alex Carey collects it away from the stumps. He looks to flick it back on to the sticks but misses and Kane Williamson makes his ground in the end.
The skipper of New Zealand, Kane Williamson makes his way out to the middle at number 3.

Mitchell Starc To Martin Guptill OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! This time he is caught and Martin Guptill departs early! Starc strikes in his first over and this was just what they needed to keep their spirits high. Starc bowls this one very cleverly. Pushes it full and wider outside off. Guptill goes for a big drive away from his body. However, he only manages to get a thick outside edge and the ball goes quite quickly towards first slip. Finch takes a sharp catch and Australia celebrate.

Mitchell Starc To Martin Guptill
Dropped! Bowls it full and on middle. Guptill flicks it to square leg and Marnus Labuschagne there jumps to catch it. He gets both hands on this one but the ball does not stick and two runs are taken as the ball goes towards deep square leg.
