Having been called in to bat first, New Zealand struggled in the initial stages with 58 for 3. What came next was a revolutionary collaboration that put the series in a different perspective. With another spectacular performance during the tour, Daryl Mitchell led the innings with a dominating 137. Glenn Phillips supported him well with his fluent 106.

 

 

The two contributed 219 runs, combining calculated aggression and composure. Mitchell’s innings, full of sharp boundaries and mighty sixes marked his highest ODI score and was the best indication of how significant he is to the New Zealand middle order. An unbroken cameo by the skipper Michael Bracewell helped the total to an imposing 337 for 8 albeit late wickets.
