The Toss, captains are ready and the toss is about to take place...

New Zealand have won the toss and their captain McCullum has chosen to bat first.

 
New Zealand won the toss, chose to bat first on a flat wicket and made a scintillating opening stand of 37 in 4 overs between Martin Guptill and Tom Latham, before the latter being bowled off @Mr Nokkaya Prathik in this third over. The score had moved on to 85 before Williamson was @Samuels stumped off @SamP Sam Parkinson, but Guptill, who continued to build on, went on to a 30-ball half-century with ten fours and a six before getting stumped again off Parkinson.

The following pair departed in quick succession, McCullum for 28 and Anderson (8), and it led to the brake being applied. Tarak Prahik was able to pick up some cheap wickets who was touch expensive with 3 for 56 in his five overs.

Taylor and Neesham built New Zealand's innings carefully, after the acceleration they had in first 25 overs. It took Neesham to hit his first boundary after facing his first 18 balls, he had made only eleven. Nevertheless, he soon accelerated with eight more fours and a six before getting bowled of Parkinson.

Taylor kept his nerves reaching 90 runs before getting LBW off @greymatter776 Chelackal who picked up his first wicket.

Worse was to come for New Zealand, as three wickets fell for just 26 runs in eight overs. Bracewell, Southee and Sodhi all followed Taylor and Neesham back to the pavilion as the innings fall apart just when New Zealand were setting up to press on.

Openers @Samuels Dick Punani and @themusketeer Aman Kumar anchored the PlanetCricket effort, putting on 65 in less than 10 overs. Bracewell produced a beauty to have Aman caught at the slips for 34 in his second over, and Punani had 32 when he played at a ball from the fast bowler Bolt that edged to gully.

But @Umair2000 Orton and @sathishsky Sathish combined trimly to prevent further loss.

Head Coach Graham Gooch said: "Overall we probably dominated the game and, when you do that in a One-Day International game, you're going to win more than you lose.

"It was a tricky chase, the equation was about right after being able to take wickets at death. But the two lads (Orton and Sathish) are in excellent form and showed why they're on top of their game."

Again a high scoring match But this time we won it. It was a decent bowling performance by PC on a flat track. Parthik and Parkinson were impressive with the ball. Tarak took a 5-fer too. While chasing Openers put on a half-century opening stand giving team a good start when we were chasing 300+. Later Sathish and RKO were absolutely brilliant putting on a 200+ partnership for the 3rd wicket and made sure we dont lose any more wickets and wins comfortably.
