- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.1 slogged down the throat of deep midwicket! Stoinis steadies himself under the catch, and it's Guptill who winces now. Lobbed up straight and he went for the big hit but never quite got hold of his slog-sweep. Guptill was the man to take Zampa down, but he's taken himself out instead 76/23.5 slower ball, and it has still managed to carry to the keeper. Looks like a legcutter, could even be a knuckle ball, but it has moved just enough off the straight to take the edge from a similar punch from Mitchell. Wade dives in front to take it clean. It is a legcutter, replays confirm 28/117.5 comes down, tries to hit him on to the bleachers - but finds long-off! There'll be no hundred for Williamson, but it's still the joint-highest score in a T20 World Cup final. Another variation from Hazlewood, legcutter out the side of the hand, and for once Williamson's timing failed him 148/417.2 heaved leg side... but picks out deep midwicket! Hazlewood keeps a lid on it with a knuckle ball on a length, Phillips is unable to manufacture the power and Maxwell pouches it safely running around 144/3Extras9 (b 1, lb 3, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL172/4 (20 Overs, RR: 8.6)Fall of wickets: 1-28 (Daryl Mitchell, 3.5 ov), 2-76 (Martin Guptill, 11.1 ov), 3-144 (Glenn Phillips, 17.2 ov), 4-148 (Kane Williamson, 17.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR12.2 splat! Boult strikes, stumps akimbo! Looks ungainly from Warner, attempting to hammer a crouching pull-cum-sweep through leg... the ball is on a length and just zips through, smashing into the polls and giving NZ a lifeline at the crucial moment 107/22.3 lovely catch by Mitchell. Boult bounces him after the charge last ball, gets a top edge but this is headed more towards deep midwicket than deep square where the fielder is. Mitchell makes all the ground to his left, and takes the catch sliding 15/1Extras10 (lb 4, w 6)TOTAL173/2 (18.5 Overs, RR: 9.18)Fall of wickets: 1-15 (Aaron Finch, 2.3 ov), 2-107 (David Warner, 12.2 ov)
