THE PREDICTION
Australia produced a stunning fightback to claim the opening game of the ODI series against New Zealand and with plenty of improvement to come for the hosts, they will look to build an insurmountable lead here. The Australians were struggling at 44/5 when chasing 233 to win before a brilliant partnership of 158 from Alex Carey and Cameron Green turned the game on its head. The Black Caps will be hugely frustrated having failed to get the job done and will need the rest of the bowling unit to backup the efforts of Trent Boult who finished with figures of 4-40. There is also more to come from the tourists with the bat but they have now lost the past three ODI matchups between the pair and Australia have to be fancied once again.
