WICKET
New member of the national ODI squad Scott Boland comes into the attack. Just over 30,000 in the crowd at the moment according to Network Ten. Christian tries to nick a single as he hits toward mid-on but Luke Wright pounces on it and does superbly to throw down the stumps.

Hobart in tatters at 3/20 odd again. They take three off Beer’s 2nd over.

WICKET
Maxwell resumes and is cut finely by Dunk for four runs. Horrible run out. Bailey hits it behind him straight to the fielder. Dunk calls him through for a single, but Bailey refuses to run, as its a terrible call, leaving both men at the keepers end. Hastings throws to the bowler’s end and Dunk will take the fall.

Bailey comes in a lot earlier than he would’ve liked and hits a four off the final ball of the over, meaning Beer falls just shy of a wicket-maiden. George and Dunk will need a decent partnership here.

Stars opening with spins from both ends, as Michael Beer comes in and he immediately has a big lbw appeal on Sangakkara. Next ball he’s gone! He’s been given out caught down the leg side. Well taken from Handscomb, but did he he it?

Finally the end of Maxwell’s nine-ball over, as Sangakkara gets off the mark with a single, and Dunk adds two more.

Dunk works maxwell for three, before maxwell bowls another wide. Paine looks to take him over the top of mid-off but is caught by Faulkner at full stretch, great catch!

Hobart batting first with Tim Paine on strike and Ben Dunk at the other end. Glenn Maxwell will start with the new ball in the hope of replicating the spin success of the Renegades in Hobart’s last match.

The teams are as listed down the right-hand side of the page, except Rose comes in for Reed, giving the Canes an extra spinner.

Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Big Bash! Last time out the Melbourne Stars won the derby in front of over 80,000 people. Hobart are looking to get back on the winners list. Should be a cracker.

Stumps have officially been called. Play will start at 10:30am tomorrow. 98 overs are required to be bowled. Australia need 7 wickets, New Zealand need 362 runs. If the rain holds off we should be in for an exciting final day.
Thank you for joining me on The Roar.

Yeah, I’d agree with that. Watling can also accumulate deliveries, being a very patient player.

Unlikely that we will get any more play today.

The rain has eased up, but with dark clouds overhead, the lighting is now a problem. Not looking good at the moment.

The players come out after tea to be greeted by more rain. And they will have to head straight back off. The Australians are reluctant to leave the field, but they’ve been told to go for now. Lots of rain is forecast shortly, so they are putting the covers on now to prepare for the onslaught.

Marsh has an lbw shout before tea, but it is drifting leg side quite comfortably. Good thing they didn’t review. And that will be tea. Solid session by the Australians, its been tough going but they will be happy to see the back of Williamson.
New Zealand 3/142

The Umpires call has ended Williamson. Lyon with the break through! Williamson is beaten by the turn and hit on the pads. The umpire gave it out. There was a question of height which convinced Williamson to review. Umpires call means he has to go, and do New Zealand’s hopes go with him?
New Zealand 3/136.
