    Southee to David
    shovelled away with the bottom hand between deep midwicket and wide long-on. Bam! Even Phillips can't stop that! David finishes it off the last ball for Australia. Southee tries the yorker, but marginally misses his length, tails into David, but David still clears his front leg and absolutely muscles it away to the leg-side boundary. Phillips leaps to his left but David has hit it so hard. Phillips is shocked at the boundary. The crowd is shocked beyond the boundary. But this is just David doing David things
    19.5

    Southee to David
    off-stump yorker, good comeback from Southee. David carves away to the right of deep cover and rushes back for the double
    19.4
    6
    Southee to David
    Southee searches for a yorker, ends up pushing a full-toss down the leg side. David connects with it and sends it flat and hard over the boundary. Replays indicate that he hit the long-leg boundary cushions on the full
    19.3
    1
    Southee to Marsh
    knee-high full-toss, swinging in to Marsh. On another day Marsh would've smashed it out of Wellington. On this day he can only inside-edge it onto his thigh pad. Southee and NZ get lucky
    19.2
    1
    Southee to David
    just short of a yorker length, but still a good full ball on leg stump, David backs away and digs it out to the covers
    19.1
    1
    Southee to Marsh
    inch-perfect yorker from Southee, right in the blockhole and ducks in, pings Marsh's pad or rather the boot. Southee spins around for an lbw appeal. Not given on the field. It seems to be heading down the leg side. NZ still call for a review, given the game-situation. It had pitched outside leg too. Good call from umpire Haig
    19.1
    1
    Southee to Marsh
    full and veering down the leg side, left alone, leg-side wide
    18.6
    6
    Milne to David
    launches it again. That's two sixes to end the over. Milne goes yorker. He misses the mark. David batting deep in his crease is able to line it up and thumps it over long-on
    18.5
    6
    Milne to David
    smoked! David charges down the crease with menacing intent and he has demolished the slower length ball 98 metres over the straight boundary
    18.4
    4
    Milne to David
    toe ends the wide yorker and it slithers away for four between short third and the keeper.
    18.3
    1
    Milne to Marsh
    inside Marsh's swinging arc - they're cramping him, not allowing the freedom of those big shoulder. Full and angling into the base of fourth stump. Only a single to deep midwicket
    18.2
    1
    Milne to David
    Conway fluffs it behind the stumps as David swings at a full and wide delivery and makes no contact. Australia staying leg side of the ball sometimes to their detriment
    18.1
    1
    Milne to Marsh
    looks for the yorker outside off, Marsh is able to smear it away and he's looking set for a boundary through point, but Allen pops up just in time
    17.6
    1
    Ferguson to Marsh
    onto him so very quickly, the 144 kph back of a length ball angling into the body keeping Marsh quiet. No room for the pull shot. Brilliant finish. 14 dots in Ferguson's spell. Only 11 runs off the last two overs. Australia need 35 off 12 now.
    17.5
    0
    Ferguson to Marsh
    goes back to the yorker, this time wide outside off. Marsh looks to snag the extra as he lets it go, but it lands inside the tram line
    17.4
    6
    Ferguson to Marsh
    smashes it over deep square leg. Goes to back of a length but that's the ball Marsh is setting up for. All of his strength comes into play to beat the shorter boundary
    17.3
    0
    Ferguson to Marsh
    nails the yorker right at the base of middle stump and even Marsh can't get under it
    17.2
    0
    Ferguson to Marsh
    slower ball into the body, on a good length, Marsh doesn't calibrate his bat swing properly and ends up playing and missing. There's still jeopardy here. Australia think about sneaking a single, Ferguson isn't about to let that happen, racing to his right off his followthrough and from somewhere near short leg he kicks the ball at the stumps and had he hit direct, Marsh would've been gone!
    17.1
    1
    Ferguson to David
    taps and runs through the off side
    16.6
    1
    Santner to David
    flighted outside off, drives to long-off. Just three off the 17th over
