Wellington, Feb 21 (UNI) Tim David's brute force delivered Australia an exciting last-ball victory in the series-opening T20I against New Zealand after squeezing a Tim Southee yorker to the mid-wicket boundary with four runs needed.
David finished with an unbeaten 31 from just 10 balls as he and captain Mitchell Marsh (72 no off 44) posted their team across the line when Australia needed 43 off the final three overs.
David's smashed two sixes and a boundary from the last three balls of the penultimate over leaving 15 to get off Southee's last.
