LIVE: Aussies 'stunned' by little-known star; Kiwi gamble pays off after costly error.
“At times I’ve been a bit more negative to left-arm bowlers. There’s some technical things I can do to a left-armer that can help that. Williamson missed his sweep shot and opted to review, but ball-tracking showed the delivery was going on to hit middle stump. I still feel as though I’ve got a really solid game plan. “If there is rain around and the game is shortened, that can dictate what you do with your team,” he said earlier in the week. “It was nice for them to have a bit of a conversation with an experienced spinner in this format.” “They’re very clinical at home and in most places that they play, which is a reflection of where they stand in the game,” he said. [Josh Inglis ruled out of the tournament](https://www.foxsports.com.au/cricket/t20-world-cup-2021/cricket-world-cup-2022-josh-inglis-injury-backup-team-australia-aaron-finch-golf-squad-cameron-green/news-story/6207aa7544d6f0d3a09e1b915d042872) after a freak accident earlier this week. Adam Gilchrist said in commentary that the home crowd appeared to be “somewhat stunned”. Australia had a chance to stop Allen in the third over when he was on 19 but Adam Zampa dropped the catch at short fine leg. Australia’s title defence at the T20 World Cup is underway as they face New Zealand at what is expected to be a capacity crowd at Sydney Cricket Ground. It proved to be a costly error with Allen going on to make 42 runs off just 16 balls to set-up the New Zealand innings.

1st over: New Zealand 14-0 (Allen 14, Conway 0) Starc begins on a good line and length over the wicket to the right-handed Allen for a dot. Aaron Finch is mindful of the weather and made the obvious choice to chase. The wicket is straw coloured and dry, and Allen believes it’s going to play truly, swatting the second ball for a one-bounce four over wide long-on, then a third ball six with an even cleaner smite. The ball trickles away for four and is subsequently belted to the opposite segment of the boundary with a glorious lofted cover drive. Conway recognises he needs to rotate the strike, which he does, allowing Allen to sashay down the pitch and calmly loft a six-iron over the sight-screen. 6th over: New Zealand 65-1 (Conway 19, Williamson 4) Cummins begins his second over with a dot but Conway responds with an inventive bunt for four down to third, stepping to leg, then reaching to deflect a delivery barely on the cut strip. 4th over: New Zealand 56-0 (Allen 42, Conway 14) Marcus Stoinis is called on much earlier than he imagined, and after Conway strokes a couple through the covers there’s a shout for a catch behind but the ball clipped the batter’s grille, not his gloves, as a loopy bouncer arced through to Matthew Wade. 7th over: New Zealand 74-1 (Conway 26, Williamson 6) As the field spreads, Conway welcomes Adam Zampa to the attack by carving a sumptuous cover drive for four. Conway and Williamson are happy to deal in ones and twos with the latter (eight from 12) still yet to find his timing, especially to the off-pace deliveries. 12th over: New Zealand 112-1 (Conway 48, Williamson 21) Starc remains in the attack as the floodlights take full effect and it’s a superb over full of pace and swing, keeping the Black Caps honest and threatening the stumps with every delivery. 11th over: New Zealand 109-1 (Conway 46, Williamson 20) Immediately after the mid-innings drinks break Williamson carts a Stoinis legside delivery over the square-leg fence in a statement of intent. 15th over: New Zealand 144-2 (Conway 70, Phillips 7) Zampa beats the outside edge of Conway’s bat with a wrong’un but the opener’s back foot remains grounded as Wade removes the bails.
There is a 90% chance of rain in Sydney which may put a damper on the opening match of the Super 12s.
- No seamer has taken more wickets than Hazlewood (23) in the powerplay in T20 cricket in the past year. Though the forecast is grim, the SCG recovers quickly from rain, which the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, says is likely to come in the afternoon and the evening. However, with the [La Niña weather event](https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/mens-t20-world-cup-2022-weather-watch-high-chances-of-rain-affecting-aus-vs-nz-ind-vs-pak-1340545)in play there is a 90% chance of rain in Sydney, which could potentially play spoilsport. They will also have to contend with the [injury-enforced absence of Daryl Mitchell](https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/t20-world-cup-2022-daryl-mitchell-unlikely-to-be-available-for-new-zealand-s-opener-against-australia-1340130)- one of their heroes from the 2021 T20 World Cup - who is racing against time to be fit for the game against Afghanistan on October 26 at the MCG. Throw in the finishing skills of Tim David and the pedigree of David Warner at the top, and you have the ingredients of another title-winning side. - Williamson's form has been iffy since the last T20 World Cup and his niggly elbow hasn't helped him either. Kane Williamson didn't rule out the possibility of both Ferguson and Milne featuring in New Zealand's XI. [Glenn Phillips](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/glenn-phillips-823509)' time is now. [Tim David](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/tim-david-892749)who has a bit of Kieron Pollard about his six-hitting. He said it was on the drier side. It is very unlikely that all three can find a place in the same XI. Allen is one of the most exciting short-format players currently, boasting a powerplay strike rate of 156.48 - the best among all batters who have played at least ten innings during this phase since his T20I debut in March 2021.

15.2 Hazlewood to Glenn Phillips, no run, short and pounded into the hard length, Phillips backs away and attempts the upper cut, but there's enough bounce on this surface to take it over the top-edge. 14.3 Zampa to Conway, no run, smart bowling. It is that hard length once again which works for Hazlewood, he pounds it halfway down and rushes Phillips on the cross-batted shot, the ball hits the splice and balloons into the off-side, Hazlewood calls for it and runs to his left to complete the dolly. 15.3 Hazlewood to Glenn Phillips, FOUR, this time he connects. Full delivery on off-stump, Conway drives it straight of mid-off and a dive from Warner is not enough to stop the boundary 15.6 Hazlewood to Glenn Phillips, out Caught&Bowled!!

He backs away to repeat Marsh's inside out loft but Santner kept this much closer, not much room for Finch to free his arms and hence does not get the elevation to get it over the infield, struck it hard and straight to Williamson at extra cover. Height was an issue and that saved Marsh Slower ball and Marsh is completely deceived, he's through the heave early and skies it towards deep mid-wicket, Neesham runs around to his left and hangs on to a good catch. Off-cutter and the ball breaks in, beats Marsh's swing and strikes him on the back thigh. 4.5 Southee to Mitchell Marsh, out Caught by Neesham!! Mitchell Marsh c Neesham b Southee 16(12) [4s-2 6s-1]

Zampa b Boult 0(2) That's the end of the match and it's only apt that Conway has the final say in the game - change of pace and it has undone another Australian batter, was the off-cutter and Cummins was way too early into his swing, skied it straight up, Conway called and Conway took the chance without any fuss. That set the tone and New Zealand never let Australia into the contest, not at any moment of the game.

That set the tone and New Zealand never let Australia into the contest, not at any moment of the game. The surface was very good to bat on and I thought timing the ball would give you more success. Everyone know their roles in this team, we knew about the quality of their bowling (Australia's), took the game deep and we were very clinical in what we needed to do. He got off to a flier (on Finn), we needed early wickets which didn't happen and when we chased, we lost too many wickets, we weren't good enough with the net run-rate taking a bad hit.

Devon Conway batted through the entire 20 overs to make 92 off 58 and posed a question to Australia. Finn Allen announced himself as the new face of this batting line-up. New Zealand last beat Australia in Australia in December 2011.
New Zealand skittle defending champions for 111 to win their first match against Australia in Australia since December 2011.
The New Zealand captain's run-a-ball 23 wasn't the story on Saturday but it may be one later on in the tournament. Bad luck and the bizarre had a baby and it turned into the ball that got David Warner out. Allen fell in the fifth over, but New Zealand already had 56 runs on the board. Also, the other batter, Aaron Finch has been woeful against left-arm spin this year (14 runs in five innings and two dismissals) Guess what happened... Adam Zampa went for 39 runs in his four overs at the SCG. Unlike most left-handers, he looks for his boundaries on the off side, which is where he found 58 of his runs tonight at a strike rate of 187. New Zealand ransacked 14 runs off the first over. In Sydney, he got to face six more than that, and that was enough. The problem was he got out too early. [Finn Allen](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/finn-allen-959759)announced himself as the new face of this batting line-up. Ten years can be a good time to wait for some things - inspiration, lifetime service awards, the right blend of salt and pepper in your hair - but not a win. Minus all the hurtling down the track.

But the boys showed a lot of ticker and took their catches. Australia’s innings, like their opponents’, began in ominous fashion as David Warner saw his stumps displaced when Southee’s first delivery took a couple of deflections off both player and bat. This was by far the biggest moment of his career. Kane Williamson’s introduction saw the scoring rate fall as 16 balls passed without a boundary, a slump ended when Conway cracked Zampa over long on. The Black Caps had been bullied by Australia on their home turf since the famous 2011 test triumph in Hobart. The young slugger and his teammates did not miss.

Mitchell Starc is bowling full and New Zealand has taken immediate advantage of it. 2nd over: Josh Hazlewood begins his spell and concedes a four off his first delivery. A slower ball from Pat Cummins sees Allen play a sloppy hook shot, but Adam Zampa couldn't secure it in the field. A change in the bowling department hasn't helped Australia, with all-rounder Marcus Stoinis the latest to be hit for six. The Kiwi opener scored a rapid 42 runs in a stunning statement that has come to an early end. End of the power play. Nine runs from the over. Although the ball hits Conway's pads before his bat, Hawkeye shows the ball traveling over the stumps. No mucking around from Williamson, hitting his first six of the night off the first ball after the break.

Aaron Finch and Mitchell Marsh also failed to fire, and Australia was soon teetering at 34 for three in 4.5 overs. The duo muscled a few lofty shots to bring in 15 runs in the 18th over. In front of a 34,756-strong crowd at the SCG, Australian pacers had a nightmarish PowerPlay, where Starc conceded 14, Hazlewood 15 and Pat Cummins 17 runs in their opening overs.

The wicketkeeper-batter never went hard but his runs came at a good rate, and he completed his fifty in 36 balls with a six off Adam Zampa in the 13th over. In the second over of Australia’s innings, New Zealand pacer Southee bowled a good length delivery, and Warner, who was trying to go for a pull while crunching low, failed to time the shot as the ball took an inside edge before hitting his pad and then it popped onto the bat’s follow-through, hitting the edge before dropping onto the stumps as Southee celebrated a wicket off his very first delivery of the match.

It's been a tumultuous 24 hours for the Australian Diamonds heading into the series deciding Constellation Cup game four on Sunday.
But it didn’t do the job for Australia. The physicality from both teams was huge in game three and I thought it was too much. And she showed that ability against New Zealand on Wednesday night. They always turn it up another level when they are playing in Australia. This game four will be a really good test for them – if the Silver Ferns want to win a World Cup, they now know what the level is going to be like, what the game and physicality will be like. She’s been in a really different position this series, after winning that Commonwealth Games gold medal – trying to get both combinations in and find the winning balance. But for Garbin, game three was a big, big moment for her and she did exactly what the Diamonds needed her to do – be solid, shoot well and be the target they need with Gretel out. It had been more than 1000 days between international matches at home for the Diamonds and they really turned it on in front of their fans. They won by 15 goals – that’s a huge margin and they’ve already made up the difference in the series to reclaim the Constellation Cup with a victory on Sunday. It will no doubt be a talking point in the Diamonds camp this week, as there is a fine line between that aggression and not being penalised out of the game. The Diamonds brought the fire and aggression in game three that had been missing this series, with the ‘argy-bargy’ a big factor in the win over New Zealand. I believe the umpires would have had a very good look at the match and there’ll be more whistle in the deciding game four.

She was brought in for Sunday Aryang who suffered a calf tweak in the opening test in Auckland last week. They need to come back and play it like they can play, where everyone has individual responsibility and play within their structures." "Defensively, we need to get the timing right and start looking for intercepts and don't chase Australia. I'm expecting they [Australia] would go with the same line up [into test four] and why wouldn't you, they performed well." Unlike the first two tests, coach Dame Noeline Taurua made wholesale changes in Melbourne with all 12 players taking the court. On defence, the Ferns went away from their zone and were caught chasing.
The Australian Diamonds will have to block out the “outside noise” surrounding their $15 million sponsorship debacle if they are to reclaim the ...
A beautiful dodge by Sophie Garbin saw her open under the post to keep Australia within touching distance. “It’s about how the Diamonds respond to that (umpiring). Another big penalty call on Gordon in attack gave the Diamonds the chance to take the lead for the first time in the match, and Wood converted. It took almost four minutes for New Zealand to score their first goal of the quarter as the Aussies suddenly found space in their goal circle. A big Bruce intercept gave the Aussies a second chance to narrow New Zealand’s lead after Wood had missed her fourth goal of the match, before some Garbin goals levelled scores in the third. And Nweke missed her first attempt after Bruce forced her rival out a little further than she’d been used to in the first half. Kate Heffernan pulled in a beautiful intercept on the goal circle but Diamonds star Courtney Bruce got the deflection to stop a resulting goal. Steph Wood was hit by a “cruel” held ball call on a shot that dropped to start the second term before Price put her body on the line to win back possession. Bruce was given the “no more” warning from the umpire - but not an official warning as the Ferns jumped out to a six-goal break. A massive contact call on Maddy Gordon in attack gave the Aussies their first chance to narrow the gap. After two losses against the Silver Ferns in New Zealand to start the series, the Aussies came back with a vengeance in game three in front of home fans for the first time in more than 1000 days. Just 24 hours after Hancock Prospecting made headlines across the country by pulling out for their massive deal due to “disunity” between players and Netball Australia, the Diamonds will take the court to face their rivals New Zealand in the series decider on the Gold Coast.
The Blackcaps thrashing of Australia in the T20 World Cup opener might've been impressive, but Glen Phillips' outfield catch was "outrageous".

"We've got a lot of things to work on. Even when you saw (wing attack) Maddy Gordon go off and then she came back on that release improved." Taurua also made changes to her line-up in Melbourne, with New Zealand leaving wing attack Peta Toeava - a standout in the opening two Tests - at home.
