New Zealand will be taking on Australia in the final ODI of the 3-match series of the New Zealand tour of Australia. Aaron Finch, the Australian skipper has announced his retirement from ODI cricket and will be playing his last match for Australia in this format. He has played 145 ODIs scoring 5401 runs with 17 tons to his name. However, he will lead the Aussie side in the T20 world cup next month which is to be held in Australia.
Having won the 2nd ODI by 113 runs Australia have won the series and have retained Chappell-Hadlee Trophy. Australia struggled with the bat as they were 117-8 after the wicket of Steven Smith who departed after a decent inning in difficult circumstances scoring 61 off 94 balls. The tail stood up for the Aussies and the last three batters – Zampa, Starc and Hazlewood added 77 runs between them and took Australia’s total to 195 in their 50 overs. Trent Boult was again impressive with the ball for the Kiwis as he took 4 wickets for 38 runs.
New Zealand never got going in the chase and were unable to show intent in their batting. Starc and Abbott were excellent up front picking 2 wickets each. Sean Abbott bowled 4 maiden overs on the trot and gave away just a single run in his 5 overs. Adam Zampa took care of the rest of the batting line-up as he finished with figures of 5/35 as New Zealand were bowled out for 82. The Kiwis would look to finish the series on a high and display an improved performance.
