Hazlewood to Finn Allen, out Bowled!! Cleans him up with a yorker! Oh what relief for Australia as Hazlewood knocks over Allen to end a blistering innings that has given New Zealand the perfect start here. Allen dances down again as he’s done to great effect so far, but this time Hazlewood finds the blockhole and bursts through.
Finn Allen played a sensational knock of 42 runs in just 16 balls with the help of 5 fours and 3 sixes. After the dismissal of Allen the New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson came to bat. New Zealand scored 90 runs so far in 9 overs.
