2.5 to TL Seifert, full ball on off. Slogs to the leg side, loses one hand off the bat while playing it, and that's been miscued to deep square leg. Muthusamy gets under it.. 27/1
403829.50114150
3.6 to DP Conway, short ball outside off. Tries to pull, and top-edged! Goes up and the keeper gets under it to take a simple one. 35/2
9.3 to JDS Neesham, back of a length ball outside off. Neesham stands tall and tries to pull a six over the stands, but all he can get is the elevation, not the distance. Deep square leg does the rest.. 70/5

403919.75102320
7.4 to DJ Mitchell, short of good length ball just outside off. Tries to pull but top edged to deep square leg! Outfielder runs in and dives forward to complete the catch.. 62/3

8.6 to MJ Hay, trapped lbw? Umpire has a long think before raising his finger. First T20I wicket for Muthusamy as this flat length ball skids into the batter's pads and beats his back-foot defense. Hay is gone for two.. 69/4

3.2 to LG Pretorius, guided to the keeper! The experienced man has his say. Good length ball angling away from Lhuan-dre. He tries to play a cute guided shot towards short third but instead helps it into the keeper's gloves. The off-cutter has done the trick. 34/1
11.6 to D Brevis, holes out! Brevis tries to swat another shot over the leg side, but this good-length ball has some pace taken off. Miscued, mistimed, and down long on's throat!. 101/6
18.2 to G Coetzee, Neesham takes a diving catch and New Zealand have won by 21 runs! Pace taken off, full and wide, Coetzee tries for another across-the-line slog, and this time the ball has popped up. Nobody is at midwicket but Neesham runs in and takes the catch while tumbling.. 152/10
402035.00163010
4.2 to RA Herman, short and quick. Hermann tries to pull but it hits him high up on the bat. Simple catch for midwicket. This tactic worked for SA, and now NZ are using it too!. 35/2
17.4 to GF Linde, short of good length on off. Linde shapes up to pull. Good timing, but it's the longer side, and he has holed out at deep square leg!. 148/8
17.5 to KT Maphaka, straight to cover! Santner takes that! And Duffy is on a hat-trick. Full ball outside off and the ball was there in the slot to drive. But the fielder smartly took it. The umpires want to have a look at the front-foot though. Is it a no-ball? Very tight. Given out.. 148/9
403428.5052110
7.5 to S Muthusamy, middle stump gone! Sodhi with one that goes straight. Muthusamy made room, exposed all his stumps, thinking he would go inside out. But the ball lands around leg stump and the delivery skids into middle stump.. 60/4
13.1 to C Bosch, full ball on middle. Goes for a reverse sweep but he's beaten by the lack of pace. Through the shot too early. Ball hits him on the body, and the umpire raises his fingers up in a flash. LBW! Only question was whether that googly would turn too much and miss leg stump, but NZ and the umpire sure don't think so.. 111/7

6.2 to RR Hendricks, stumpes rattled! You miss, I hit stuff as Santner goes stumps to stumps. Lands on a good length,skids into middle and leg stump. Hendricks in no position to play any shot after goes deep in his crease. 50/3
