Australian's tour of New Zealand 2021. For 34 overs in the contest, New Zealand felt they were on their way to a comfortable win. Then a three-over assault from Marcus Stoinis and Daniel Sams gave Australia a chance to pull off a come-from-behind win in chase of 219. Eventually, the hosts walked away with a four-run win and a 2-0 series lead after James Neesham defended 15 in the final over. Martin Guptill returned to form with 97 while Kane Williamson struck a half-century. Neesham (45* off 16) provided the late push with the bat which proved to be just enough for New Zealand to stay ahead.
