1.2
Tim Southee to David Warner, FOUR! Smashed away! Fuller and around off, angling away, Warner stays leg-side of this delivery and smacks it over cover-point for a boundary.

1.3
Tim Southee to David Warner, FOUR! Boom! Warner is going to attack every width outside off. This time it's short and wide outside off, Warner brings his fast hands into play and whacks it over backward point for a boundary. Till the time David Warner is there, Kane Williamson will have to hold back Mitchell Santner. So that's one option gone inside the Powerplay for the Kiwis.

2.2
Trent Boult to Aaron Finch, FOUR! Smacked! Slower ball, on a length, on off. Finch dances down the track and smacks it straight down the ground for a boundary.

2.3
Trent Boult to Aaron Finch, OUT! TAKEN! Trent Boult draws first blood and the Australian skipper yet again falls to a left-arm pacer! Finch comes down the track again so Boult digs it short on his body. Finch goes for the pull but gets the top edge. The ball goes to the left of deep mid-wicket. Daryl Mitchell runs across, slides and takes a very, very good catch. A well planned and executed breakthrough.

3.1
Adam Milne to Mitchell Marsh, SIX! Whoa! That's some way to open your account in the final. A touch short in length, around middle and leg at 144 kph, Mitchell Marsh picks it up and belts it over deep backward square leg for a biggie. He loves pace on the bat.

3.2
Adam Milne to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR! Cleverly done! Another pacy delivery, short and outside off at 92 mph, Mitchell Marsh delays his shot and just uses the pace of the bowler to fetch a boundary at third man.
4
3.3
Adam Milne to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR! Marsh is enjoying Adam Milne's pace at the moment. Shortish and around off at 141 kph, Marsh sits on the front foot and then leans back to unfurl a cracking pull shot. It's towards mid-wicket and the ball speeds away to the fence.
6
4.5
Tim Southee to David Warner, SIX! Boom! Southee is a shade on the shorter side, around leg and middle at 72 mph, Warner sits back and waits for the ball to arrive before launching it over mid-wicket. He is so powerful.
6
7.2
Mitchell Santner to Mitchell Marsh, SIX! That is absolutely hammered by Marsh! It's flatter and darted on the pads. Marsh gets low and slog-sweeps it deep into the stands behind square leg.
4
8.2
Ish Sodhi to David Warner, FOUR! That is a powerful stroke by Warner! Shorter ball, way outside off. Warner hammers it down the ground. The man at long on dives but has no chance. Warner now has the most runs in a single T20 World Cup for Australia.
4
8.5
Ish Sodhi to David Warner, FOUR! Warner is getting into his own now and Kane Williamson has a worried look on his face! Shorter ball, around off, Warner pulls it hard. Adam Milne at deep square leg runs to his right and slides but the ball goes under him and runs to the fence.
6
8.6
Ish Sodhi to David Warner, SIX! This is a massive over for Australia and they are flying! Tossed up, outside off. Warner smokes it straight down the ground for a massive six. 17 from the over.

10.1
James Neesham to Mitchell Marsh, SIX! A thumping welcome to Neesham by Marsh! Short ball, down the leg side. Marsh nicely pulls it over backward square leg for a boundary.
6
10.4
James Neesham to David Warner, SIX! There she goes, that sounded stunning! The ploy to bring on Neesham has not worked so far! On a length, around middle and off. Warner heaves it deep into the stand behind mid-wicket. It brings up the fifty for Warner, off 34 balls and what a T20 World Cup he is having!
4
11.5
Mitchell Santner to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR! No stopping that! Shorter ball, on middle. Plenty of time for Marsh to rock back and pull it hard. The man at short mid-wicket dives to his right but does not get there. It runs away to the fence.

12.2
Trent Boult to David Warner, OUT! BOWLED! Trent Boult delivers for Kane Williamson! Is this the moment that brings New Zealand back in the game? Length ball, around off at 138 kph. It lands and skids away with the angle as Warner looks to heave it away on the leg side. The ball perhaps stays a bit low and beats Warner's bat before smashing the stumps. A brilliant, brilliant World Cup for Warner ends here but he has put Australia in a winning position. 66 needed off 46 balls.

13.1
Ish Sodhi to Mitchell Marsh, SIX! Fifty for Marsh, off 31 balls. What an innings and it is the fastest fifty in a T20 World Cup final. He needs to stay there though, the job is only half done. Tossed up outside off, Marsh powers it over the long on fence for a biggie. The length was very full and it went the distance. Aaron Finch is enjoying Marsh's knock and is applauding from the dressing room.

13.3
Ish Sodhi to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR! Getting Ish Sodhi on was probably not the right move! Short and it sits up to be hit. A hit-me ball. This is pulled through mid-wicket. Boundary this time.
4
14.3
Adam Milne to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Finds the gap! Australia running away with this! Short and on the body, Maxwell pulls, it does not seem out from the middle but in the gap in the backward square leg region. Boundary.
4
14.4
Adam Milne to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Consecutive boundaries and only 39 needed now in 32. All the luck going Australia's way! Short and on middle, seam-up ball. Maxwell looks to pull, this goes off the top edge down to the third man fence.
4
15.1
Tim Southee to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Australia are well and truly on course to win it now. 33 needed. Maxwell makes room and Southee follows him. Maxwell looks to heave it, it goes off the inner half down to fine leg for a boundary.
6
15.2
Tim Southee to Glenn Maxwell, SIX! Over the fence! Short and on the body, Maxwell stays back and pulls it over the fine leg fence. Goes all the way. Less than run-a-ball is needed now.
4
16.2
Trent Boult to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR! Marsh is now in a hurry to end this! Short and it sits up to be hit. Marsh hammers it towards mid-wicket. In the gap and into the fence.
4
18.1
Tim Southee to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR! That is probably the hit that seals the deal! A slower one, into the surface. Marsh swings, he does not time it that well but it flies down to long off. Neesham runs to his right, dives but does not reach it. A boundary. Just 7 needed more.
4
18.5
Tim Southee to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! THERE IT IS! There are the winning runs! Maxwell is the one who finishes the game off in style! The five-time 50-over World Cup champions have won the T20 World Cup for the very first time. A trademark Maxwell shot to end the chase. A slower one wide outside off, Maxwell plays the reverse sweep and it goes past short third man for a boundary. AUSTRALIA WIN BY 8 WICKETS!
