Today, a twenty20 match held between Australia and New Zealand, and finally Australia wins the match by 1 run only. Both teams fought bravely for their win but at the end Australian team was a little bit luckier then New Zealand and due to which Australia wins the match. Australian team choose the batting after winning the toss and BJ Haddin (Captain) and DA Warner give a decent opening start to the team. But after scoring 15 runs Haddin goes to pavilion. Then at one down position Ferguson comes to stabilize the team and cricket scores as well. After the dismissal of Haddin, Warner also got out and DJ Hussey comes on the crease. Now the whole emphasis was on Ferguson but he also failed to support the team and he scored only 8 runs and bowled out by butler.
Now the whole burden of the batting lines was on DJ Hussey and on AC Voges, and they supported the team as well by building a partnership of 52 runs. When Australia reached at 104runs, they have to beard one more loss and that loss is of DJ Hussey, who got out after scoring 41 runs. Now once again the balance of Australian team started to shake. On the dismissal of DJ Hussey, JR Hopes came to bat. JR Hopes and CL White scored 16 runs each and take Australia to a reasonable fighting total.
Australia gave the target of 151 runs to New Zealand which was quite easily attainable for New Zealand team. They also have in their minds that the cricket results of this match were in their hands and they could easily take the win for their team. From New Zealand side BB McCullum and MG Guptil came to open the innings but Guptil goes out after just facing two balls and New Zealand had to face the first shock.
But the story doesn't ends here as just after the dismissal of Guptil, PG Fulton also got out by scoring 1 run only. Fulton was one down batsman and he just failed to support the batting line of his team. After the fall of two quick wickets, NT Broom came to bat. He and McCullum scored 36 and 61 runs respectively and took New Zealand back into the game. But suddenly on the total of 73, Broom got out and GD Elliot came to the crease.
It was a test for Elliot as well and some how he was succeeded in that test as he played a not out knock of 23 runs. When score reaches to 131 and the New Zealand become confident that they would easily won the match, the key player McCullum got out. He played a knock of 61 runs. Then no other batsman could take the charge which can take New Zealand to the victory stand and they managed to score 149 runs on the loss of 5 wickets.
