New Zealand vs Australia 1st T20I Live Cricket Score: New Zealand face Australia in the first T20I encounter in Wellington on Wednesday in the three-match series.

The Australia tour of New Zealand begins with the first match of the series taking place in Wellington. It would be an intriguing sight for the Australian captain Mitchell Marsh who is set to lead Pat Cummins, his captain in the Test and the ODI format. New Zealand will be without the services of Kane Williamson for the series, having taken a paternity leave. But, the Kiwis did receive a boost in the form of Trent Boult who was available for the series. Spin-bowling all-rounder Mitchell Santner will be leading the New Zealand side in the absence of Williamson.
Conor Murray says he doesn't have any plans to step away from international rugby just yet, with the scrum-half targeting a contract to remain in with Munster beyond this season.
The Indian men's and women's sides registered contrasting wins in their final group games to progress to the knock-out phase of the Word Table Tennis Team Championships on Tuesday. While the Indian women's team pulled off a thrilling come-from-behind 3-2 victory over Spain, the men's side brushed aside New Zealand 3-0. The Indian women's team, the stronger side on paper, were pushed against the wall but found a way to scrape past the Spaniards after Sreeja Akula and Manika Batra lost the first two singles of the tie. After Ayhika Mukherjee kept India in the contest with a win in the third singles, Manika and Sreeja returned to get the job done in the fourth and fifth singles.

Ahead of the T20I series against New Zealand, Australia T20I captain Mitchell Marsh revealed the team's top batting order. Marsh revealed that the top three spots are "pretty much set," with him batting third and Travis Head and David Warner beginning the innings. These established three have demonstrated exceptional cooperation and performance in previous years, leaving little space for uncertainty regarding their responsibilities in the upcoming World Cup. And considering Glenn Maxwell's recent success at number four, including a memorable 120 from 55 balls against the West Indies and Tim David's steady contributions at six in the same T20I campaign, Australia's top order appears to be well established ahead of the World Cup in June.
Australia batting great David Warner said on Monday he expected a hostile reception when the world champions begin a Twenty20 series in New Zealand this week.
