00:00It's great to have your company as our summer of cricket begins here on October 1.
00:14New Zealand taking on Australia tonight, the first to three.
00:17Our man, Michael Bracewell, captaining the side, took the coin.
00:20Mitch Marsh called heads and heads.
00:23It was Australia winning the toss and they have decided to start with the ball.
00:28No surprises there, you would say.
00:31If we have a look at the side, there's a lot of power in that batting line.
00:35There's a lot of players missing as well, but New Zealand, I think, has depth.
00:37You look at that side and you've got to actually think.
00:39Yeah, it is Glenn Maxwell.
00:41He got injured yesterday in the Nets.
00:42He is out for this series, could be out for half the summer.
00:45But it's still a very good side.
00:46Travis Head and Mitch Marsh, well, that will continue that open partnership.
00:49They've both been in pretty good form, especially Mitch Marsh.
00:51He was the player of the series last time here in New Zealand.
00:55Josh Hazelwood, all here at the Mount.
00:58He looked good against South Africa, Hazelwood.
01:02He played three.
01:06Trying to hit it.
01:07Oh, that's beauty there.
01:09Trying to hit it on the top of the bounce.
01:10Did hit it on the top of the bounce and hit it for four.
01:14Even early on, it gives you a bit of an indication of what this pitch is here at Bay Oval.
01:18Just giving himself a bit of room to himself it.
01:21Charging this time, doesn't hit it, doesn't time it and goes for an out.
01:29Simple catch to the skipper Marsh and Seiford gets underway and then he's gone.
01:33The order for New Zealand.
01:35Hazelwood didn't change it.
01:36He had the outswing it, set outside the off stump.
01:39He said, if you want to take a risk against me on a...
01:41And New Zealand, one for four.
01:45Tim Robertson comes out to bat in the number three position.
01:49And the first over.
01:53Boldham charged.
01:55Little bit of movement in the air and it was too much for Conway.
01:59And there's easy pickings for the Aussies.
02:02There's a good length ball.
02:03Just a little bit of swing away.
02:05But that's a big loss for New Zealand.
02:07Devon Conway on his way for one.
02:09Six for two, the Kiwis.
02:14Well, there was a noise.
02:15There was a definite noise and some interest from the Australians.
02:19Nothing from umpire Hay.
02:21Having a look.
02:24Through.
02:26Thank you for the spike ball next to the bat.
02:28One screen signal now.
02:31Well, there was a noise, all right.
02:33It's a disaster in the early overs for New Zealand.
02:37Chapman goes for a duck.
02:38They're three down.
02:39And the second over hasn't even finished.
02:42Sits on a hat-trick.
02:45Oh, it's not a goodie.
02:47It's not a goodie.
02:48It's not the best hat-trick ball.
02:50Keep going with the quicks.
02:53Flash into that one.
02:54That'll be four.
02:55It's fine enough.
02:58Had a big swing at the bat.
03:02Got an educated inside edge.
03:06It's got that in the middle of that.
03:08It's right out of the spruce.
03:10And it's gone the whole way as well.
03:12Into the wind.
03:13That is a good hat.
03:15Best shot of the night there from Darrell Mitchell and New Zealand.
03:19Mid-off was up.
03:20Even though they've got three wickets down, still prepared to play shots.
03:29Short up.
03:31And that sounded real good.
03:34That is Tim Robinson.
03:36Director Mark Lynch is laughing at my hair.
03:39He hasn't been outside today.
03:40And it's another one.
03:43Stoinis here has just lit the pressure.
03:47Down the ground.
03:48And that is big.
03:49That is really big.
03:53Robinson has the arms free.
03:55And a catch in the crowd as well.
03:57Check the guy from Blue's Clues.
03:59And again.
04:04Just the hand speed through the shot.
04:08Take a lot of turn here.
04:09Zampa drops it in short.
04:11Not a lot of chance to turn there.
04:13Except turn around and watch.
04:19That is a welcome to the bowling crease for Adam Zampa.
04:22That's a fine knock.
04:3250.
04:34Cut.
04:37Strike down the ground.
04:38That's four.
04:39That's a shot of authority from Depp.
04:41Sore finger.
04:43Goes for it.
04:44Mid-on.
04:45Tim David will be close.
04:47And taken just inside the rope.
04:49Gee, they needed that.
04:50Australia, that partnership was getting ugly.
04:53Finally, they break it.
04:55And the Kiwis lose their fourth.
04:57A disappointment for Mitch Lord of my cover.
05:00So New Zealand lose their fourth.
05:02I think that's the case tonight.
05:05Four runs.
05:07Full toss, full and wide.
05:09He had a deep point.
05:10But the way he hit it.
05:13In the air.
05:14And dropped.
05:16I think he got to a Travis head.
05:18Might have gone through his hands.
05:20That would have been a big wicket.
05:22And...
05:22Mid-off's up and that's beating him.
05:27Good shot.
05:27He jammed it out.
05:28But it was just the power.
05:32Threw it up a little bit.
05:35He's bowed well.
05:37Zealand haven't been able to get hold of it at all.
05:39And they're right out the back.
05:43Leader hold on.
05:45This time, into the breeze.
05:47Won't have enough.
05:48And take it in the deep.
05:49That is a good catch.
05:51Tim David.
05:55We have an uproar view for a fair catch.
05:57So fair delivery.
06:00East angle, thank you.
06:01Can you keep going through?
06:04Yeah.
06:04No, thank you.
06:05Ball's clearly on the ground.
06:06Ready to make my decision for the screen.
06:10Wow.
06:15Well.
06:16You're not catching that unless you're five rows deep.
06:20Robinson gets on with it.
06:22That's gone up.
06:28Up and over.
06:29That's one bounce, four.
06:35Oh, that's a beaut, two.
06:36Man, it's so well played.
06:38This might run away for four.
06:40Will it make it?
06:40No, it won't.
06:42Beautiful work on the boundary from Marcus Stoinis.
06:45Yep, thanks.
06:52Take that angle.
06:54Yeah, back short of the ground.
06:55End of the air.
06:56Bails are lifted.
06:57Ready to make my decision for the screen.
06:59Well, now we can digest this because that's out.
07:02I could watch that on repeat.
07:04Little bit of pizzazz.
07:06Throw on point.
07:10That's well.
07:11A little swing at that.
07:13Should be a couple in it.
07:14At the least.
07:17Three Australians around the ball.
07:19And it all felt a little pedestrian, but it won't matter
07:21because Bricewell is going to be turning and going back to the pavilion.
07:27That's all I need to see.
07:28But just clearly short of the ground.
07:29Ready to make my decision for the screen.
07:32Captain's gone.
07:33Another run out for Australia.
07:34On the boundary from an Australian point of view.
07:37And New Zealand's.
07:39Here we come.
07:39Oh, and he accesses behind the stumps.
07:45There's 100.
07:46Tim Robinson.
07:47You beauty.
07:48You beauty.
07:52Outstanding.
07:53Tim Robinson.
07:54Bombs up his 100 off the 65 delivery.
07:58Six fours.
07:59Four sixes.
08:00A little bit of innovation.
08:04Finds the space.
08:05Picks up another four.
08:07And it is the bat raise for the young man.
08:10Last ball.
08:11The innings.
08:13Robinson.
08:14Tries to get hold of that.
08:17Tries.
08:17Succeeds.
08:20Six to finish.
08:21The ball wants to keep going.
08:23That's the end of the New Zealand innings.
08:241-8-1 for six.
08:27Tim Robinson has carried the Blackcaps to a very competitive total.
08:32Incredible strike to finish.
08:35That's the cherry on top for Tim Robinson.
08:38The first T20 international 100 for him.
08:43Placed the 66 balls for that 1-0-6.
08:46Contributions as well.
08:47Darryl Mitchell, 34.
08:49Evan Jacobs, 20.
08:51And that's pushed them on to 181 for six.
08:54Ben Dorsh just picked up two early wickets.
08:56Josh Hazlewood.
08:57His economic best.
08:59One for 23 and his four.
09:01Had some difficult bowling to deal with, especially early on.
09:03Excellent figures as well for Adam Zampa.
09:05Didn't pick up a wicket, but went for just the 27 runs through the middle.
09:09New Zealand have made their way through to 181 for six.
09:13It means Australia, they'll need 182 for victory here in the first Chapel Hadley T20 international.
09:21And there's plenty of firepower in that Australian line-up.
09:24That's for sure.
09:24The two men at the top, they start things off.
09:27But when you look at that strike rate of Travis Head, sitting it up over 150.
09:31Slips all back with a point.
09:33Mitch Marsh, well, he just loves his front foot down the ground, heading straight.
09:37New Zealand will have to be on their game.
09:39Matt Henry's got the pace.
09:40I love that.
09:41He's bowling down, breeze.
09:42A little bit of something in the surface for him.
09:44Make the new ball, but it's going to be Matt Henry for the first over.
09:47And he's right on the money, right from ball one.
09:54How do we enter?
09:57Well, that's not bad.
09:58Mitch Marsh, he gets a little hint of width, frees the arms, and he is off and running.
10:04He's such a powerful batsman.
10:06He's on the march this time.
10:10There's Marsh inside half of the bat.
10:13The power once again.
10:15Back-to-back boundaries now.
10:23Come on, that's up.
10:28Oh, he's had a go at that.
10:29Mitchell Marsh, and he has got all of it.
10:32Puts that up on the bank.
10:34Having an enjoyable time of it out in the middle is Mitch Marsh.
10:38It's the back-of-the-hand slow ball from folks to try and close the over out.
10:45After him straight away.
10:46Timing not perfect, though.
10:48Skipped away.
10:48One bounce, four.
10:49And now Travis Head's in on the action.
10:51Speed.
10:55It's that one.
10:56Travis Head a little bit more in control.
10:57And that might have gone all the way.
11:01One bounce, just short.
11:04Oh, chance.
11:08Oh, just, just over the outstretched hand.
11:12I don't reckon he picked that up.
11:14Certainly, he was on the wrong foot.
11:17Lucky one there from Travis Head.
11:19I think he was going way over his head anyway.
11:21Hits.
11:26Gets that one.
11:27That's Travis Head.
11:28That favoured offside once again.
11:32Pace off once again, and it is met.
11:36Full wide from Duffy.
11:38Oh, Mitchell Marsh says, thank you very much.
11:41Well, he's got his eye in here.
11:45Can't close it out.
11:46Because it's gone to that same region.
11:48Couple of bounces.
11:49Runs away for four.
11:50Back.
11:51Matt Henry running quite the slug, isn't he?
11:55Nothing sluggish about this from Australia, though.
11:57They are on fire here.
11:58And a four off the first.
12:05That one is high up on the bat.
12:06It doesn't matter.
12:07It doesn't matter.
12:08These guys will be hitting fours with the bat handle in a second.
12:10Pulls for a little bit.
12:13Well, that's up.
12:14And that's out.
12:15You can try that instead.
12:17Yeah, that will work as well.
12:18Oh, and he's gone too full there, too.
12:34That has been thumped over the corporate marquee.
12:39That is a big six.
12:46It's up and over.
12:47That's a good shot.
12:48And that's four more.
12:50Marsh is on a heater.
12:52Taking to put this side under any sort of pressure.
12:54And you're not going to do it that way.
12:56That is a shot of class.
12:59It was a real feeling of thank you very much about the way Marsh put this away.
13:07Well, that's going to be 50 up.
13:09And what a way to do it.
13:11Into the crowd.
13:12Put down.
13:13Doesn't matter.
13:14Mitch Marsh putting on a clinic here in Mount Maunganui.
13:17So when on speed, full and straight.
13:21Bang for six.
13:23Oh.
13:23That's just a golf swing.
13:28He has just picked that up and deposited it on the terraces.
13:32Need to strike.
13:33And need to strike in the next few balls.
13:35And they're not going to.
13:37That is going to be deposited, too.
13:39Straight down the ground.
13:40Another one for Marsh.
13:42He is 61 off 25 deliveries.
13:45Slightly.
13:47Another one over the top of mid-off.
13:50Very good shot there from Matt Short.
13:52He just picked it up.
13:55That's in the air, but it's over mid-off.
13:57He's got enough on it.
13:58What about the strength there from Mitch Marsh?
14:01Ball wasn't that short.
14:03He got it high on the bat.
14:04He's pretty happy as well.
14:06Oh, that's got to be out, surely.
14:10Full tight.
14:11He missed it.
14:13Matt Short did not pick that up at all.
14:15It might have been a change of pace.
14:19Another one in the gap there from Mitch Marsh.
14:22It's in front of Square.
14:24And it goes into the rope.
14:30Over mid-wicket and a boundary.
14:31Very, very productive over there for Australia.
14:36Over tonight.
14:39Really well hit there from Marsh.
14:42Gee, that was strong.
14:43He was down the wicket.
14:45Wasn't sure.
14:47A little bit of width in the deep.
14:48Should be a mark.
14:49It is taken.
14:50The chest mark.
14:52Pretty well hit from Mitch Marsh, the skipper, but he's got it.
14:55On strike, but instead it's still Mitchell Marsh.
14:57Tries to carve that offside once again.
15:00One of the favoured shots.
15:01Hits it flat.
15:02Hits it hard.
15:03Hits it to today's earlier century.
15:05New Zealand have picked up their third wicket.
15:07It's Mitchell Marsh.
15:08He's gone for 85ers.
15:09They're a twister.
15:17Well, that's gone a long way.
15:20Tim David.
15:23That's gone.
15:24Fraction short.
15:25And it is way, way back up on the hill at Bay Oval.
15:29He was waiting for it.
15:30He was very patient.
15:31Tim David.
15:33Bracewell knew it as well.
15:38And out.
15:39All the things you want to do when you've got one run to win, you don't want to get out.
15:46And all sorts of minds as to where he was looking to hit that in the end.
15:49Was he trying to hit it in the end?
15:50Maybe we should hit it and just had no pace.
15:52Oh, a nice pull shot there.
15:58Wow.
15:58Marcus Stoinis off the mark with a boundary.
16:01And he gets Australia over the line as they win game one of the series by six wickets.
16:06Yeah, how about that?
16:08How about that?
16:08That is a way.
16:09Finish it off.
16:09There's something in it for him.
16:11Wait for it.
16:12We'll see on Friday, fellas.
16:15Mitch Marsh winning the toss.
16:16Happy to chase.
16:17And they did it very well.
16:20Blueprint victory, wasn't it?
16:21For Australia.
16:22Put pressure on top.
16:23Take early wickets.
16:24Be prepared to maybe weather a little bit of a comeback by the opposition.
16:29Restrict them to something.
16:30You back yourself to chase and then go out and chase it.
16:32And they chased it really efficiently.
16:35It was a typical Marsh performance there of strength.
