    "editor1": "<p><strong>Brisbane, May 8 (CRICKETNMORE):<\/strong> &nbsp;A classy century by Will Young helped New Zealand XI beat Australia XI in their second World Cup warm-up game on Wednesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>New Zealand made impressively light work of their chase off 278 on the back of a brilliant 130 from Young, who shared consecutive century stands with George Worker (56) and Tom Latham (69*).&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>However, the Australian management would be happy with the fact that four of their key players put up telling performances during the course of the game.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc bowled at a brisk pace and took two wickets with his trademark yorkers, finishing with figures of 2\/14 from five overs before he was withdrawn from the action midway through New Zealand&#39;s chase.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Other noticeable performances for the Australian team came from Steve Smith, Usman Khawaja and Glenn Maxwell as all of them scored half centuries and showed signs of returning to form.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Smith, who didn&#39;t have a great IPL, looked in great touch as he amassed 89* off 77 deliveries in which he scored four boundaries and four sixes. Khawaja, who came in at number three, played a 75-ball 56 run knock.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Maxwell also played a brisk cameo of 52 which came off 44 balls. He hit six boundaries and two sixes during the course of his inning.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>However, Australia&#39;s 277\/6 wasn&#39;t sufficient as New Zealand chased down the target losing just three wickets and with 16 balls to spare.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The final match between the two teams will be played on Friday.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Brief scores: Australia XI: 277\/6 (Smith 89*, Khawaja 56, Maxwell 52, Bracewell 3\/45); New Zealand XI: 283\/3 (Young 130, Latham 69*, Worker 56, Starc 2\/14)<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
