OUT! Bowled. Andrew Tye to Ish Sodhi. Half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, missed. Quick, full and straight. Off stump is knocked back and New Zealand complete their 20 overs, making 117-9.
This should not be enough with the strong Australian batting line-up but New Zealand will not rollover easily. It all started with Stanlake, who demolished the top-order and finished with career best figures of 3-15. He was superb along with Andrew Tye and the whole of the Aussie team in the field. Join us after this short break for what should be a comfortable chase.
