    Michael Bracewell
    127(82)&0/42(8)
Right then, that is all we have from this thrilling first ODI of this three-match ODI series! New Zealand go 1-0 up and they would be looking to seal the series in the second game that will be played on Tueday, 12th of July. It will start at 3.15 pm IST (9.45 am GMT). Our build-up though begins earlier. So do join us for the same. Till then, goodbye and cheers!
Tom Latham, the skipper of New Zealand, says that it is one of those games that when someone plays that kind of knock one need to appreciate that and it was a special innings. Tells that it is a difficult ground to defend scores but they lost wickets but luckily Michael Bracewell played brilliantly. Tells that Ferguson was brilliant with the ball and Irish batters batted well and he says that it is great to be part of such a special game.
Andy Balbirnie, the skipper of Ireland, says that it is a disappointed dressing room at the moment largely because they did everything right apart from winning the game. Adds that in the end, Michael Bracewell took the game away from them and it is a big shame that they ended up on the losing side having played brilliant cricket. Says that he is happy with the performance but they are on 1-0 down in the series which hurts a bit.
Michael Bracewell is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his brilliank knock of 127 off just 82 balls! He says that he does not have words to describe this feeling at the moment. Tells that they had to rebuild and they got some partnerships in the end and then managed to take the game off from there. Says that they proud themselves to take the game deep and they managed to do that and that helped them win the game.
Presentation time...
Ireland would be wondering how they let this game slip. They did everything right till the final few overs. They were put into bat by the Kiwis and Ireland responded with a fine batting show as Tector notched up his first ODI century and middle-order did its job to perfection. The bowlers then continued that momentum and both seamers and spinners bowled quite well to keep the pressure on New Zealand right throughout the chase. Campher was especially exceptional and finished with three wickets. He even outbowled an experienced bowler like Lockie Ferguson who was brilliant with the ball for the Kiwis and took 2 wickets in this game. However, Ireland gave away way too many loose deliveries in the end and their most experienced bowler, Craig Young crumbled under pressure in the last over.
New Zealand had a stiff target to chase but they had a powerful batting line-up and on the ground with short boundaries, they would have fancied their top order to chase this down, They did chase it down eventually but it turned out to be quite dramatic. They kept losing wickets throughout this chase and it was Martin Guptill at the start who held things together and scored a good fifty. However, he too departed eventually as New Zealand were reduced to 120-5. Outwalked Michael Bracewell and started building partnership first a brief one with Glenn Phillips and then an important one with Sodhi and just when things looked out of New Zealand’s hands, he exploded at the death and smashed Irish bowlers all over the park. It still looked a distant target when Lockie Ferguson departed with 20 needed off the last over. Bracewell though had other plans and finished it off with some brilliant hitting.
Michael Bracewell...you beauty! He has pulled off a heist for New Zealand here! One of the best ODI knocks you will ever see. The Kiwis were almost down and out right throughout this chase but they just managed to hung in there and with 20 needed off the last over, Michael Bracewell just finsihed things off in style with one ball to spare! Ireland would be gutted here, they did almost everything right in this game but just could not keep their composure in the final few overs and have missed out on a golden opportunity to register their first ODI win against the Blackcaps!

DRINKS! New Zealand need 134 more from 102 balls but more importantly, they have only four wickets in hand. Ireland have been brilliant with the ball and have picked wickets at regular intervals to stay ahead in this game so far. New Zealand need Michael Bracewell to bat till the end and hope that others support him. Ireland are favourites to win from here but they still need to bowl well and get those four wickets to wrap this game up.

OUT! LBW! Andy McBrine strikes and gets a vital breakthrough here! He breaks this partnership and New Zealand are in some serious trouble here! Tossed up delivery on off. Glenn Phillips looks to sweep but misses. The ball hits his arm and there is a big appeal. The umpire though turns it down. Ireland take a review. The replays roll in and the UltraEdge shows no bat. The Ball Tracking rolls and it shows three reds. So the decision will be overturned and Glenn Phillips has to walk back.

Curtis Campher To Henry Nicholls OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! New Zealand lose another and Ireland are right on top here now! Curtis Campher with a lovely delivery again. This is pitched on a good length and outside off. Henry Nicholls just looks to push it away. However, the ball just nips away a bit and catches the outside edge of the balde. The ball goes back to the keeper and Tucker makes no mistake. Huge breakthrough this for Ireland!

Curtis Campher To Martin Guptill
Goes fuller on middle. Martin Guptill drives it off the inside half of his blade towards mid-wicket for a single.
DRINKS! This has been a very good start from the Irish bowlers. They have got three quick wickets and couple of more here and they will be right on top in this game. New Zealand though still have plenty of quality in their ranks and they would like this pair to stitch a solid partnership now. An interesting passage of play coming up and it will be critical from Ireland's point of view to keep the pressure on with tight lines and lengths.

Curtis Campher To Tom Latham OUT!
OUT! LBW! Curtis Campher after bowling couple of loose deliveries has got a big wicket here! He bowls this full and angles it on middle and leg from 'round the wicket. It actually ends up being a low full toss and Tom Latham who looks to flick it, misses. The ball hits his pads and there is an appeal. The umpire raises his finger and Tom Latham reviews it. However, the replays show that the ball is just clipping the leg stump and that means it will be umpire's call on wicket's hitting. So the original decision stays and Tom Latham has to walk back.
