Marsh Powers Australia Past Robinson’s Century In Chappell-Hadlee T20I Series Opener
Hadlee T20I: A power-hitting display from captain Mitchell Marsh powered Australia to a comprehensive victory in the opening match of the Chappell-Hadlee T20I series in Mount Maunganui, overshadowing a superb maiden T20I century from New Zealand’s Tim Robinson.
Put in to bat after Marsh, who has never batted first when winning the toss in a T20I, once again chose to bowl first, New Zealand endured a disastrous start. They were 6 for 3 in the second over as Josh Hazlewood struck early and Ben Dwarshuis put himself on a hat-trick by removing Devon Conway and Mark Chapman.
From there, Robinson rebuilt magnificently. Initially scratching his way to 10 off 14 balls, he exploded with a flat six off Marcus Stoinis and a clean strike against Xavier Bartlett to reach a 31-ball fifty. His stand of 92 off 55 balls with Daryl Mitchell steadied the innings. Robinson’s innings, though, came with fortune: he was dropped five times – on 55, 62, 74, 76, and again later when Alex Carey missed a stumping.
