Australia win ‘amazing’ World Cup thriller

Chasing down Australia’s 388, New Zealand never let the game get out of hand thanks to 23-year-old young gun Rachin Ravindra’s 89-ball 116.

With five balls left, however, Jimmy Neesham, who slammed a 39-ball 58 was facing Mitchell Starc, needing 18 runs to win.

The second ball of the final over was a shocker from Starc, who threw it down the leg side for a wide that raced away for four, taking five runs off the required target with six balls still remaining.

But Starc fixed his line, going for two runs each off the next three balls to leave seven off two.

A run out of Neesham left the Kiwis needing six off the last ball, but Trent Boult could only manage one.
