Kiwis cap comeback with dominant defeat of Australia A

Australia A have been rolled for 127 as New Zealand A accomplished a outstanding turnaround of their four-day conflict in Brisbane.

The Kiwis’ 225-run victory got here after they have been bowled out for simply 147 on day one and have been left considering a monstrous first-innings deficit.

But they dominated the ultimate three days, with Scott Kuggeleijn capping a superb sport with 4 second-innings wickets to go along with an 85-ball century and 5 scalps within the host’s first knock.

Test aspirant Cameron Bancroft’s affected person 47 was the one innings of notice in a failed chase, Australia A dropping 8-96 on Thursday and West Australia fast Joel Paris (hamstring) not batting after pulling up sore on Wednesday.

“We had a really good first day but then we got outplayed from that moment onwards,” Bancroft stated.

“Our batting wasn’t quite good enough.

“They have been simply capable of management us and we most likely did not grasp in there fairly lengthy sufficient.

“And our bowling was just a bit off; we weren’t able to build pressure and they hurt us.”

Changes to Australia A’s assault are tipped when the 2 sides meet for a second four-day fixture in Mackay – a pink ball, day-night conflict – from September 4.

The sides may also play three 50-over video games, cut up between Brisbane and Mackay.
