Toss : New Zealand, elected to field.
Result : Tied.
Series : New Zealand lead 5 ODI series 2-1 with 1 to play.
Man of Match : Jamie Hoe.
Umpires : Billy Bowden & Asad Rauf.

Just because it was a Day ODI, Kiwi captain Daniel Vettori elected to bowl first.. thinking whatever help for bowlers there will be - it will be in the first session. New Zealand also have a good record while chasing a target when playing at home but do you really expect to chase down a target of almost 7 runs per over for 50 overs?

New Zealand did it, with help of an incredible innings from man of the match Jamie How.. they just couldn't score 2 more run for victory off last delivery. 1 leg bye & match was a tie!
