AUS beat NZ by 86 runs | Australia vs New Zealand, Highlights And Cricket Score 37th ODI Match - Commentary

Now then, the target seems to be a stiff one! Also, the wicket is not that easy to bat on. Australia have an excellent bowling line-up and New Zealand's batting except for Kane Williamson, has not been that great. A cracking chase awaits. Do join us in a while.

Also, a word of praise for New Zealand's fielding! Yes, they did drop a few catches but all of them were not easy chances. If you keep that aside, they did manage to grab a few blinders. Their ground fielding was exceptional and they have easily saved around 10-15 runs in the field.

The New Zealand bowling was excellent to begin with! Boult was excellent with his lines and lengths. Ferguson bowled extremely well, he bowled quick and was intimidating at time. Neesham stuck to his plans of keeping it tight. Even Williamson, who brought himself on as there were two-left handers, was very handy. What New Zealand will be disappointed with is the effort from their frontline spinners. Both Santner and Sodhi went wicketless and were also a touch expensive. They still though will be happy at the end of the innings.

Australia, after winning the toss and opting to bat, got off to the worst possible starts. They lost their best batters, Finch, Smith and Warner within Powerplay 1. Stoinis and Khawaja then did try to steady the ship but the former perished after getting off to a start. Maxwell then did not deliver when his team needed him too. At 92 for 5 and with Australia's batting not that deep, 150 is what everybody felt they would have been bundled out for. That was not the case though as Carey and Khawaja put up a brilliant 100-plus run stand. The former played an extremely fluent innings. He counter-attacked right from the outset and scored a brilliant half ton. He was the mainstay of that partnership and Khawaja played as the perfect foil to him. When the two were batting, it seemed Australia would get past 250. However, once Carey perished, it was time for Khawaja to step on the gas but he failed to do so and Boult's hat-trick in his last over, ensured they fall short of 250.

WHAT A RECOVERY FROM AUSTRALIA! At 92 for 5, if you would have given them 243, they would have taken it with both hands. They have ended up with a total which is more than competitive on this wicket and they have two people to thank, Usman Khawaja and Alex Carey.

Trent Boult to Nathan Lyon. A dot on the final ball. Almost another yorker, but this is outside off. Lyon gets across to paddle but misses. Cummins wants a single but Lyon is not aware. Then he turns to look to Cummins but then by that time, Latham has under-armed his throw. Would have been out had he hit but he misses. Boult then tries to come forward and knock the bails off but Lyon gets back in. AUSTRALIA FINISH ON 243/9!

Nathan Lyon is the last man in.

Trent Boult to Jason Behrendorff. OUT! LBW! IT IS A HAT-TRICK! History has been created by Trent Boult. He becomes the first Kiwi to take a hat-trick in an ODI World Cup. What a ball to get the hat-trick. It is an inswinger, not exactly a yorker, but right on the full mark. Behrendorff looks to flick but misses and is hit on the back pad. Boult screams, the umpire takes his time but then raises his finger! Expectantly, Jason takes the review. There is no inside edge and the ball is hitting the pads in line of the stumps and then crashing into middle! Well bowled, Trent Boult!

Jason Behrendorff has been adjudged LBW! But he has taken the review. Looks dead plumb. Hit the pads on the full. Seems to be crashing into the stumps. Yes. Ball Tracker agrees. It is a hat-trick!

Trent Boult to Mitchell Starc. OUT! BOWLED! That has gone right under! Forget the boundary, he cannot even stay for more than a ball! Superb bowling by Boult and he is now on a hat-trick. A perfect yorker, right at the base of the stumps, Starc cannot even have the time to hit the ball through the line and the bat comes down late. Boom. Right at the base of middle.

Mitchell Starc comes in at number 9, with 3 balls left. Can he get a boundary or two?

Time for the National Anthems! The players make their way out to the middle. Australia will sing their first and then it will be New Zealand's turn.

PITCH REPORT - Ian Smith says this looks a belter, it is nice and brown, there are some foot marks and Ish Sodhi who has come into the side will probably enjoy it. Further adds Australia will be looking to score above 300 or it will be difficult defending something under that.

NEW ZEALAND (PLAYING XI) - Martin Guptill, Henry Nicholls (IN FOR COLIN MUNRO), Kane Williamson (C), Ross Taylor, Tom Latham (WK), James Neesham, Colin de Grandhomme, Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi (IN FOR MATT HENRY), Lockie Ferguson, Trent Boult.

AUSTRALIA (UNCHANGED PLAYING XI) - Aaron Finch (C), David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Alex Carey (WK), Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Jason Behrendorff.

New Zealand skipper, Kane Williamson, says they wanted to bat too as it is a used surface and it seems dry. Informs Sodhi comes in for Henry because of the nature of the surface and Nicholls comes in for Munro. Mentions today is a new day and they want to put up a good performance. Ends by saying the Trans-Tasman game brings in a lot of crowd and they are up for it.

Australian skipper, Aaron Finch, says it is a used wicket and it should probably get slower later on and he hopes to make use of the early conditions. States the wicket is completely different than what it was in the last game, it was damp and it had a little bit more in it. Informs they are unchanged and everybody are doing their roles well. Ends by saying they are up for this match.

TOSS - Up goes the coin and it lands in the favor of Aaron Finch! AUSTRALIA WILL BAT FIRST!

Trans-Tasman Rivals lock horns for the second game of the double header in the Home of Cricket, Lord's. The two teams that are riding high on the table, no. 1 and no. 3 respectively. One has already qualified and the other can seal its place in the semi-finals with a win here. The last time the two sides met in a World Cup was the 2015 final which Australia won quite easily. New Zealand however, will look to get the better of them this time. This promises to be a mouth-watering clash. Stay tuned for the toss and teams.
