In the last T20I match hosted by Sydney, New Zealand defeated Australia by 89 runs at the T20 World Cup. The Blackcaps posted a mammoth 200-run total on the board in their 20 overs. Chasing 201 for a win, Australia lost all their wickets for just 111 runs.

It looked like a good pitch for batting as 13 sixes were hit by the batters of the two nations. A total of 13 wickets fell in the match, with pace bowlers accounting for eight of them. Fans should expect some big scores tomorrow in Sydney.
