Expatriate New Zealanders turned out in numbers at a packed Sydney Cricket Ground and have been handled to fireworks from the Black Caps batters as they blasted their solution to 200 for 3 of their 20 overs after Conway smashed the ultimate ball for a six. David Warner was unlucky to depart to a freak dismissal off the primary ball of the second over of Australia’s innings however the New Zealand bowlers saved up relentless stress to dismiss the hosts for 111 within the 18th over.
Seamer Tim Southee took three for six as New Zealand handed Australia their largest loss in a T20 worldwide and gained their first match in any format in opposition to their neighbours in Australia since a check win in Hobart 11 years in the past.
