not a lot of swing here from the openers

pitch seems to be flattening out in the heat we may be in trouble here

we need something from the dorf here

Pakistan win!

England could end their world cup tomorrow!

cummins on in the 5th

moral victory

ball doing absolutely nothing in the blistering heat

australia in real trouble here. Pitch is doing nothing

I'm guessing Starc and Dorf will bowl the rest of the innings from one end to give lyon a shot at the other

dorf gets a wicket so we get something out of the new ball

he was super unlucky not to get 2. Umpires call on the lbw

key partnership here with williamson in

dorf strikes again

now the engine room is in

ball reversing in the heat so thats good. The grass is gone so a quiet first 10 but maybe, just maybe the ball is talking

maxwell and stoinis will be key

NZs 5th bowler was ok

Australia's so far has been decent, Maxwell got us back into the match against Sri Lanka and Stoinis has averaged under 30

we might miss not getting an extra dozen with scoops in our innings. But its suddenly a tight match

carey responsible for another drop there

it would be a RRR of over six now if we did and scoreboard pressure would matter

Dorf through his new ball spell with 2-22

Can Starc Cummins and lyon deliver?
How will our fifth bowler do?

game really in the balance here. A wicket here and all this digging in from NZ is wasted

another nick!

This time Carey's excused

an umpires call, two edges go to ground
NZ riding their luck a bit

smith on

I was gonna say I'd be tempted to try smith and finch but it takes guts to do with few runs on the board

NZ only lose 2 in the first 20 but only score 60

Super conservative tactics. Might be the right ones. We'll see!

gotten 2 5th bowling options out of the way in smith and finch. Might go to maxwell/stoinis next

surprisingly we bring on stoinis
part time at both ends

maxwell on. 

Part timers in 1 over spells

interesting strategy

run rate just lifting slightly against the part timers

smith, stoinis and maxwell all went for 4 and finch for 7 off their overs

stoinis get hoiked for 6 by williamson

8 off that stoinis over

part timers are 0-26 off 5 which isn't going to kill us yet

maxwell to bowl the 6th

couple of mistakes in the fields gives away a couple of runs

7 off the maxwell over. Aussie part timers unsurprisingly letting the pressure off. Surprised they have been given 6 overs in a row. I suppose we want NZ to finish against our best

this is a problem. Starc now on against 2 set batsmen as we tried to bowl out our 5th

starc with the breakthrough!
