Trans-Tasman Trophy, 1st T20I: Australia vs New Zealand - Things which went wrong for the Kiwis

#2 Not able to convert starts

After Billy Stanlake strangulated New Zealand's top-order, Ross Taylor and Tom Blundell managed to steady the ship for a while but they could not last long enough as Adam Zampa and Aston Agar got rid of them.

Colin de Grandhomme showed some resistance as he launched two massive sixes off the leg-spin of Zampa and he finished unbeaten on 38 at the end.

Andrew Tye finished with figures of 4-23, as he cleaned up New Zealand's tail and kept the number two side in ICC T20I rankings to less than a run a ball in an innings for the first time since 2012.

Surprisingly, the Black Caps managed to hit just four sixes in their entire innings.
