Hansra has ended unbeaten, Ryder hasn't delivered any of those ten no balls and NZ have won in slightly lesser convincing fashion than seemed possible at one stage.

Right then, the action winds up in Mumbai. Here is Liam Brickhill's bulletin. Do follow the commentary from Bangalore where Australia have recovered well after an indifferent start v Kenya. On behalf of Sriram Veera and the rest of the gang, this is Nitin Sundar signing off. Ta.
Brendon McCullum is the MoM: "Happy to get the 100, the win gives us confidence and momentum. The first 7-8 overs had something in it, but then it was a really good pitch. Any ground is going to have something in it at 9 30 in the morning. I am pretty happy with the way today went. I thought the platform we set was good."
Taylor: "Brendon and Guptill gave us a good start. I had a bit of luck while batting. The bowlers complemented the batting well. Our strength is the lower-order hitting, and we try to set ourselves for a go. We have to wait a couple of days and check on Kyle Mills - he is a key part of the team."
Bagai: "Good show from Patel. Nice to get runs myself, but we lost the game in the first half of the crease. It was hot today, so got some cramps after keeping and batting, it got to me. We will look to get out on a high in Bangalore, on a true track against Australia."
NZ now lead the Group B table with 8 points out of five games. Whodathunk! They are almost definitely through to the quarters. In fact, they are through for sure.

Ryder to Chohan, FOUR runs
Canada are ending with a sting here, Chohan lines up a full and slow ball on off stump, hanging back in the crease and going straight down the ground. He bisects long on and long off for four more.

McCullum to Hansra, SIX runs
another six. Horrible finish for anyone who has Nathan in their Fantasy XI! Hansra plonks the front foot forward and across before thwacking him majestically over long off.

Chohan sends the ball in the same region, getting a single in the same region.

McCullum to Chohan, SIX runs
he goes two better this time. Does seem like they have left the onslaught for too late. Another full ball on leg stump, Chohan gets to the flight and dumps him all the way over midwicket

McCullum to Chohan, FOUR runs
Chohan pumps him through midwicket with disdain. He jumps out, reaches the pitch and whips through midwicket.
Kalai: "Very Happy to see Canada's performance. They have improved their batting after each match of this worldcup, scoring more than what they scored in their prev match. Consistent exposure to bigger teams would surely help them to improve."
And what about their bowling? Nathan comes on again.

It is really tough to see how exactly this kind of a match helps the Associates.

Southee to Chohan, 1 run
the Canadian third man dinks continue unabated. McCullum has dived to his right more often than ever before today. This one passes him and they get a single.

Southee to Chohan, no run

Southee to Chohan, no run
will they refer this? Huge lbw appeal as Southee raps the toes with another yorker. They are referring it after Tarapore turned the appeal down. This is going to be tough to call. The ball tailed in around middle and leg, Chohan was back in the crease as he looked to play across the line. Did it take the inside edge? Well it was heading well down the leg side in any case. Not out.
