ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, Australia vs New Zealand Highlights: The Aussies just about won it against the Kiwis by 5 runs in a high-scoring thriller as Rachin Ravindra's ton went in vain

6:46 PM

Cricket World Cup 2023: Australia vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | Brilliant game comes to an end

 

Australia survived a scare against New Zealand by five runs in the first match on the double-header day on Saturday, October 28 in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. The Aussies had to wait till the very last ball where six runs were required by the Kiwis to win the match at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala. Chasing 389 to win, Rachin Ravindra hit a brilliant century while Jimmy Neesham kept the Blackcaps alive till the very end with his 39-ball 58 effort. 

 

After nearly 25 dull games, the World Cup witnessed back-to-back close games after South Africa's one-wicket win against Pakistan in Chennai on October 28. This also became the match with the most runs scored in a World Cup game as it witnessed 771 runs in 100 overs.

Cricket World Cup 2023: Australia vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | Australia win by 5 runs

 

Over Summary: 1 5wd 2 2 2 1w 0; New Zealand 383-9 after 50 Overs

 

Trent Boult (10), Lockie Ferguson (0); Mitchell Starc 9-0-89-0

 

Five runs of wide and a single of the first ball and now 13 needed off 5 balls here 

 

Two runs and Neesham would be on strike with 11 needed off 4 to win

 

Yorker played down the ground for two more runs. Now 9 needed off 3 to win

 

This is brilliant fielding from Marnus Labuschagne and it seems like he has saved the game here. 4 could have meant two from five. But now it is 7 from two 

 

This is not at all ideal running from Neesham. There should have never been a doubt about taking two runs. It was a full toss and maybe a no-ball for height. But the umpire didn’t give it and then Neesham tried to run two to get it down to 5 from two balls. Now it is 6 needed off 1 ball. 

 

No runs off the last ball and it would mean that Australia win by 5 runs. However, Neesham is still in disbelief in the dressing room.

Cricket World Cup 2023: Australia vs New Zealand LIVE SCORE | 19 needed from 6

 

Over Summary: 6 1 2 4 0 0; New Zealand 370-8 after 49 Overs

 

James Neesham (51), Trent Boult (9); Josh Hazlewood 9-0-70-2

 

Jimmy Neesahm gets to his fifty, but he is unable to hold strike for the last over where his team needs 19 to win the match. But Australia will have only four fielders outside the circle. The last two dot balls could be crucial now, He should have got a boundary and a single.

This over would be the difference it seems because Matt Henry did not look to take a single and got out and then the next two balls were dot as well.
