New Zealand vs Ireland, 13th Match, Group F at Nottingham, Jun 11 2009 - Ball by Ball Commentary

New Zealand clinch a clinical win. Mills has taken out the off stump with a very full delivery. West went for the cowcorner but no wood on leather. Clatter!

low full toss outside off, square driven to deep point region and Nathan McCullum gets across to make a diving stop near the ropes

half-volley outside off, crashed to deep point

full in length and outside off, swing and a miss

another near yorker, squeezed to the on side of the pitch and Oram dives to stop

almost yorker length on the off stump line, dug out to cover

Brendon you beauty. What a fielder. It was hit to right of him at extra cover and he rushed across, picked up the ball and fired in a direct hit at the non-striker's end. Gone!

another really full delivery outside off stump, edged to left of third man

cuts away from the off stump, run down to third man

yorker from round the stumps, it lands outside off and West does really well to hang his bat out, open the bat-face and steer it through vacant slip region

flighted around off, chipped just short of deep cover

leans forward to defend

McCallan went for the reverse sweep, missed and was struck in front. It pitched on the leg stump line and skidded in.

McCullum leads by example on the field. It was swung low to right of midwicket and Brendon lunged out to take the sharp catch

Johnson goes for the reverse sweep but edges it high and Diamanti runs back from covers but fails to catch it. A better effort from him could have fetched a wicket. It wasn't all that far from him in the end

fuller, driven hard down to long-off

Johnston likes the midwicket region. He spotted the slower off cutter early and biffed it across to the midwicket boundary

swung to the cowcorner and Broom makes a sliding stop and relays the throw to Oram who throws it to the middle

pushed away off the front foot for a single
