The Australian captain needed just 50 deliveries to register his first T20 international ton, leading from the front as wickets tumbled around him. Marsh reached his half-century off just 21 deliveries with four boundaries and five more clearing the rope. Wicketkeeper Tim Seifert played an important knock, but was dismissed by Xavier Bartlett (2-25) for 48 off 35 balls. Bracewell (26) and Neesham (25) were able to do some damage late in the innings, smashing 17 from one Stoinis over. But Neesham fell to Bartlett before he was able to truly lift New Zealand’s score up towards a difficult total for the tourists.
