ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 - Australia clinch 5 run win over New Zealand

AUS vs NZ: Batting first, a stunning ton from Travis Head, and big contributions from David Warner & Glenn Maxwell helped the Aussies to post a big total. Tasked to chase 389, Rachin Ravindra powered the Kiwis to close down on the big target. A late heroic from Jimmy Neesham fell short as the Aussies clinch a stunning win by 5 runs.

Australia found themselves at the bottom of the World Cup points table this year after suffering two initial defeats just few days ago. However, they’ve turned their fortunes around with three consecutive wins, securing a strong position in the top four. In their last match, they achieved a record-breaking 309-run win over the Netherlands, marking the largest winning margin in World Cup history. This win significantly boosted their net run rate, which now stands at 1.142.

The Kiwis, on the other hand, had been leading the World Cup points table until the end of the previous week, slipped to the third place due to their recent loss to India and a convincing win by South Africa against Bangladesh. Nevertheless, the Kiwis have accumulated 8 points in total, with four more games to play, which should not cause them much concern. Additionally, their impressive net run rate currently sits at 1.481.
