- 15:49 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: Two WICKETS for Boult!Trent Boult has struck twice in the gap of three balls and New Zealand are closing in on a win here in Sydney. Boult first cleaned up Mitchell Starc then got the better of new batter Adam Zampa. Australia are nine down.AUS 109/9 (16.3)
- 15:38 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: WICKET!Glenn Maxwell played some good reverse-sweeps and swtich hit but eventually persishes on one such shot.

- 15:32 (IST)
- 15:11 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: WICKET! Unbelievable catch!OMG! What a catch it is from Glenn Phillips at deep! Marcus Stoinis hit the ball in the air in front of sweeper cover. Phillips ran to his right and jumped to perfection to take a sensational catch. Australia are four down now and the 201-run chase gets harder for them from here.AUS 50/4 (8.2)
- 14:53 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: WICKET! Marsh departsMitchell Marsh has been dismissed by Tim Southee for 16 runs off 12 balls. The slower ball does the trick for Southee. He had almost got the wicket of Marsh on the previous delivery itself but the batter survived. However, same is not the case this time as Marsh mishit the ball towards deep mid-wicket fielder and departed for 16 runs off 12 balls.AUS 34/3 (4.5)
- 14:49 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: WICKET!Mitchell Santner ends the over with a wicket. He has trapped Aaron Finch at extra cover. The Aussie skipper wanted to go over the fielder Kane Williamson, but failed in execution and lost his wicket. He hit the ball straight into the hands of his New Zealand counterpart.AUS 30/2 (4)
- 14:36 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: WICKET! Warner gone!David Warner is out! Poor luck for the southpaw. He got a good length ball to which he tried to play a pull shot. The ball took the inside edge of his bat, hit his right thigh before hitting his right hand and going onto the stumps eventually.AUS 5/1 (1.1)
- 14:34 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: Australia start 201-run chase vs New ZealandDavid Warner and Aaron Finch have started Australia's 201-run chase vs New Zealand. Five runs came off the first over bowled by Trent Boult. Warner got an outside on the fourth delivery but he was lucky that the ball fell into the vacant second slip region and ran for a four.AUS 5/0 (1)
- 14:24 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: 1st innings summaryFinn Allen's 42-run knock off only 16 balls provided New Zealand a terrific start after Australia skipper Aaron Finch won the toss and opted to bowl first. But after the departure of Allen, New Zealand's scoring rate dipped. However, Conway eventually powered the side to a total of 200 with the help of his unbeaten 92 off 58 balls. Josh Hazlewood was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 2 for 41 in four overs.
- 14:15 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: FOUR!It was turning out to be a really good over from Mitchell Starc but Devon Conway hit a four on the final delivery to make it a 10-run over. Starc thus ends his quota of overs with figures of 0 for 36. The final over of the innings will be bowled by Josh Hazlewood.NZ 186/3 (19)
- 14:11 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: Expensive over!15 runs came off Pat Cummins' final over and he finished with figures of 0 for 46 in his quota of four overs. Given James Neesham is also hitting the ball really well alongside set batter Devon Conway, New Zealand must target a total of over 200.NZ 176/3 (18)
- 14:07 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: SIX!It's a big six from the bat of James Neesham. Pat Cummins got it in the zone and slammed it over deep mid-wicket for a six. This will ease off some pressure from Devon Conway as well, who has been pulling New Zealand on his shoulders since the departure of Finn Allen.NZ 168/3 (17.2)
- 13:54 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: 10-run overNew Zealand are slowly and gradually looking to accelerate. The wicket of Kane Williamson has done good damage to them as new batter Glenn Phillips too needs some time at the middle to settle down. The responsibility lies on Devon Conway to keep the team going from here.NZ 144/2 (15)
- 13:45 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: WICKET!Kane Williamson is gone! Adam Zampa gets his wicket. Williamson tried to go for a reverse sweep but missed the ball by a fair margin. Umpire raised his finger on the appeal, but Williamson still decided to go for a review and eventually wasted one. He departs for a run-a-ball 23.NZ 125/2 (13)
- 13:38 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: SIX! Fifty for ConwayDevon Conway races to fifty in 36 balls. It's his 7th half-century in the format in which he averages over 50. He understood his responsibilities really well after the departure of Finn Allen and kept New Zealand going despite fellow batter Kane Williamson finding it hard to get boundaries from the other end.NZ 120/1 (12.1)
- 13:22 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: Australia lose review!Adam Zampa had trapped Devon Conway in front of the stumps. Umpire was unconvinced so Aussie skipper Aaron Finch went upstairs. The ball tracking suggested that the ball would have gone over the stumps. Conway survives!NZ 90/1 (9)
- 13:17 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: A mini comeback for Australia!Some good bowling from Australian bowlers has helped the side stop Kane Williamson and Devon Conway from scoring quick runs. The New Zealand skipper is 12 not out off 8 balls while Conway is 30 not out off 20 balls.NZ 81/1 (8)
- 13:06 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: End of powerplayThe first powerplay has ended. New Zealand scored 65 runs in it and lost the wicket of Finn Allen. No doubt, their score would have been much better, had Allen not departed, but still New Zealand are off to a really good start.NZ 65/1 (6)
- 13:04 (IST)
- 12:55 (IST)Australia vs New Zealand: WICKET!Finn Allen is gone! This is a big-big relief for Australia as the right-handed batter was taking the game away from them. Josh Hazlewood comes to the hosts' rescue with a yorker delivery. Allen wanted to take him on but missed the ball and got bowled. He departs after scoring 42 off only 16 balls.NZ 56/1 (4.1)
