Yesterday's match was between Australia and New Zealand.
New Zealand won the toss and decided to bowl first.
But it proved to be a big mistake.
Australian batsmen started roaring from the first ball.
They were making 10 runs per over .
They crossed 100 run mark in just 10 overs.
All other Australian batsmen scored well.
At the end of the innings, Australia piled up a huge score of 388 runs.
Now it is up to New Zealand to chase the total......
Start of New Zealand was not good as they had lost 2 wickets very early.
But later batsmen managed to score runs.
It was evident that New Zealand was giving a fight back and not going to surrender.
Final 5 overs are full of tension.
Anything could happen.
I am writing about how the chase went.....
New Zealand needed 32 runs from 12 balls.
New Zealand needed 19 runs from 7 balls
New Zealand needed 13 runs from 5 balls.
New Zealand needed 9 runs from 3 balls.
In the final two balls New Zealand required 6 runs.
But the batsman got run out and the new batsman could only get single run.
So, Australia won by 5 runs.
Australia won in a thriller.
But New Zealand won heart by its chasing sportive spirit......
