refreshRight then, that brings us to the end of this entertaining contest, and with it, the series as well. Australia have retained the Chappell-Hadlee trophy with a 2-0 win here. Now, Sir Richard Hadlee hands over the trophy to the Aussie skipper, Mitchell Marsh, who lifts it alongside his teammates before they pose for pictures in front of the ‘Winners’ banner. Up next for New Zealand is a three-match home T20I series against England, starting on 18th October. Australia, meanwhile, will turn their focus to a three-match ODI series at home against India, beginning on 19th October. As always, you can join us early for all the build-up to every match. Until then, it’s goodbye and cheers!
Mitchell Marsh, the victorious skipper of Australia, is up for a word again. He says that when you are chasing a target like 160, the aim is always to finish the game quickly. Adds that it feels good to get across the line and wrap up the series win. On the conditions, Marsh explains that with the wicket being under covers for a couple of days, there was some seam movement on offer. Admits that 160 is always a tricky chase if you lose wickets, and that makes him proud of the way his side got the job done. Looking ahead, the skipper notes that every team is building towards the next T20I World Cup, and T20 cricket is never straightforward, but for Australia, one thing they can control is their batting intent. Signs off on a personal note, saying he is looking forward to going home, spending a week with his daughter, and then rejoining the team for the upcoming white-ball series against India.
Michael Bracewell, the captain of New Zealand, says that it was an incredible knock from Marsh and that was the difference between the two sides. Adds that the pitch was under covers for a long time, which did not make batting easy. Says that they thought they got a fighting total on the board, but just had to get Marsh out. Mentions that they need a bit longer series in this format as they are heading in the right direction.
Mitchell Marsh is adjudged the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his MAIDEN T20I HUNDRED, and the Australian skipper looks delighted. He is also named the PLAYER OF THE SERIES. He starts by saying it is always nice to win a series, especially in New Zealand, and admits there was pressure towards the end, but the team is happy to get the job done. Speaking about his knock, Marsh admits that he had a bit of luck but stresses that once you get going, the key is to keep going. He mentions that intent is central to the way Australia are trying to play their cricket at the moment, and he was glad to carry that through. Reflecting on the contest, he calls it a pretty scrappy game overall, closer than Australia would have liked, but the important thing for him was that they got over the line and sealed the series win.
Presentation Time...
New Zealand bowled well but simply didn’t have enough runs to defend. Credit to them, though, for making a contest out of it and pushing Australia, only to be undone by Marsh’s masterclass. James Neesham was outstanding, claiming four wickets in the middle overs to drag the hosts back into the game, while Jacob Duffy chipped in with two. However, Ben Sears had an off day, and a couple of expensive overs from him effectively sealed their fate.
Earlier in the game, New Zealand, after being put in to bat first, could only manage a below-par total. Tim Seifert was the top-scorer with 48, while a few others got starts but failed to carry on for a big contribution. Each time a partnership looked promising, they lost a wicket right when the momentum was building. For Australia, Sean Abbott was the pick of the bowlers with three wickets, while Josh Hazlewood and Xavier Bartlett shared four between them. Marcus Stoinis and Adam Zampa also chipped in with one apiece to keep the Kiwis in check.
Despite chasing a modest target, Australia stumbled a bit in their attempt to rush things. Apart from Mitchell Marsh’s brilliant knock, the scorecard looked rather disappointing, with as many as six batters dismissed in single digits. Marsh, however, made batting look effortless, consistently finding the boundaries and keeping the bowlers under pressure. His aggressive start in the Powerplay set the tone for the chase, and even with little support, Australia always stayed ahead in the game. Contributions from Mitchell Owen and Sean Abbott proved handy, while the skipper anchored the innings superbly, finishing unbeaten on 103 off just 52 balls.
Australia have completed a 2-0 clean sweep over New Zealand with another impressive display. The scoreboard might show that the Aussies chased the target with two overs to spare, but the Kiwis certainly didn’t make it easy. In the end, it was Mitchell Marsh’s scintillating maiden T20I hundred that proved to be the decisive factor.
17.6FOUR! IT'S OVER! DONE! Australia win the third match by three wickets and win the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy as well by 2-0, with one game washed out in that. Short of a good length and outside off, Sean gets across and waits before guiding it well to the right of backward point for a boundary to seal the deal. It was just a one-man show with Mitchell Marsh leading from the front.

17.1MAIDEN T20I CENTURY FOR MITCHELL MARSH! Short of a length and around off, Marsh presses back and tries to pull it, but mistimes it due to extra bounce. The ball balloons up but falls in the vacant short fine leg region. Marsh takes two runs to complete his milestone. It has been a stupendous innings, and he has led his team from the front in this chase, standing alone at one end.
16.6Short of a length and outside off, Sean gets across and slices it to the left of deep point for a couple of runs more. Australia need just six runs now. Neesham is done for the night, who finishes with an impeccable figure of 4-0-26-4.
16.5FOUR! Nicely Played! On a good length and around middle, Sean Abbott lifts his front leg, gets on top of the bounce and pulls it to use the pace of the bowler. The ball races away in the gap towards deep backward square leg for a boundary.

16.3SIX! This should be the nail in the coffin! Short of a length and around middle, Mitchell Marsh presses back and swings hard. Though the ball gets slightly big on him, he still manages to pull it over the deep square leg fence for a biggie. Moves to 98.

15.4OUT! TAKEN NOW! Gone on the very next ball! So, that drop on the previous delivery hasn't cost much to New Zealand. Another short delivery, aiming at the right shoulder of the batter. Xavier Bartlett presses back and tries to pull it, but Jacob has rolled his fingers on the ball and takes the pace off. Hence, Xavier mistimes it off the upper half of the bat towards deep square leg, where Tim Robinson moves to his right a bit and pouches it around his chest. Australia still need 23 runs.
15.3PUT DOWN! Ish Sodhi is the culprit! A bouncer, around off, Xavier Bartlett presses back and tries to whack it but due to extra bounce on this occasion, he mistimes it off the top end of the bat towards mid off. Sodhi runs across to his right from mid off and fails to hold onto it. The ball pops out and rolls down onto the ground. A let off for Xavier.

Xavier Bartlett is the new batter in. Also, Michael Bracewell brings himself into the attack.
12.6OUT! TAKEN! Nelson has done the trick for New Zealand! Ben Sears serves this full and outside off, and shapes away. Mitchell Owen tries to go big again, but this time only manages to get a top edge. The ball goes miles in the air, and Matt Henry from backward point runs to his right, struggles a bit to settle under it and takes a fantastic catch diving forward in the end. Australia are 111/6, still needing 46 runs in 42 balls!
12.5SIX! BOOM! Gets hold of that one! Ben Sears bangs this into the pitch and around off, pace on this time. Mitchell Owen stands tall, reaches out and spanks it powerfully over the long on fence for a biggie.

Mitchell Owen is in at 7 to face the hat trick ball.
10.1OUT! TAKEN! James Neesham is on absolute fire here! He gets his fourth wicket, and the Kiwis keep on fighting here. This is pitched up and around off, Marcus Stoinis looks to go over mid off, but fails to get under it and does not get the elevation. He hits it flat and uppishly straight to mid off, where Michael Bracewell makes no mistake. Australia lose half their side now, still needing 64 off 59 balls. Also, Neesham is on a hat-trick now, who took a wicket on the last delivery of his last over!
DRINKS! New Zealand have pulled things back a bit with a couple of quick wickets, but they know they need to keep picking up wickets as that is the only way to win this game. Mitchell Marsh is batting like a dream, and he is the biggest threat to the Kiwis. For the Aussies, he just needs a bit of support from the other end, and this game will be wrapped up sooner rather than later.
9.6FOUR! SMASHED! Slower and shorter, outside off, Mitchell Marsh shifts his weight on the back foot and slams it over the bowler's head for a cracking boundary, bisecting both long off and long on. Australia are 93/4, needing 64 runs more in the last 10 overs.

8.6OUT! TAKEN! A STUNNER! Neesham gets his third and suddenly, New Zealand are making their way back in the game. Hard length and over middle, Alex Carey backs away and tries to loft it inside out over covers, but instead, the bat gets tilted in his hands. Ends up getting it sliced off the outer half of the bat, and the ball travels towards deep point. Mark Chapman runs across to his right and times his dive there to pluck it out of the thin air. Manages to keep his grip tight despite tumbling down onto the ground. Carey walks back for 1 (3) and Australia are 85/4.
8.6WIDE! Short of a length and wide outside off, Carey hops to play an upper cut but misses. Called a wide for the height.

8.1OUT! STRAIGHT UP AND GONE! James Neesham gets his second and the destructive David walks back to the hut cheaply. This is full and outside off. Tim David tries to pick it up and over the leg side, but only manages to get a thick leading edge as he loses the shape, trying to hit it too hard. The ball gets spooned over short third and is taken by Ben Sears at deep third. Australia have slipped to 79/3.

7.4SIX! FIFTY FOR 'THE BISON'! Off just 21 deliveries and he has simply been unstoppable in the shortest format. Drags the length back, does Sodhi, on the stumps. Mitchell Marsh collapses his back knee into the pitch and sweeps it behind deep square leg for a cracking six.
7.3SIX! PUMPED! Marsh moves to 49 off just 20! Front-of-the-hand carrom ball, full and on middle. Marsh clears the front foot and muscles it powerfully over long off for another half a dozen.

Calls David for a quick single. The fielder picks the ball and throws in a motion to the batting end, but misses his shy, allowing David to slide his bat inside the crease. A hurried single there.

Tim David comes out to the middle now.
6.2OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! TAKEN! The change in bowling works wonders for the Kiwis as Neesham strikes a big fish in his first over. Spears in a fuller-length delivery, does Jimmy, on the middle and leg stump line. Matthew Short uses his wrists to whip it over deep square leg, but seemingly, he hits against the wind and hence, the ball is pulled back. Mark Chapman settles under it and judges the trajectory of the ball well. Dives to his left to scoop the ball before the grass. Matthew Short departs for a scratchy 7 (12) and Australia are 62/2.
6.1Attacks the stumps, on a good length, skidding through. Short watchfully blocks to the left of the bowler.

5.3Fired onto the pads, on a fuller length. Short misses to flick that away and the ball deflects off the front pad towards square leg. Daryl Mitchell from mid-wicket runs to his right and dives to stop, but in this process, his knee gets plugged into the damp outfield. A leg bye taken.
5.2Length ball, jagging back into the Aussie skipper. Marsh hangs back and gets an inside edge past the stumps. The ball rolls in front of the keeper and they pinch in a single.

Play has been halted for a moment after Robinson’s knee got stuck in the turf, tearing out a sizable patch of grass in the outfield.
