Emerging star Cameron Green held his nerve with a career best 89 not out in Australia's thrilling two-wicket victory over New Zealand in the first one-day international on Tuesday in Cairns. After Glenn Maxwell starred with four wickets and a spectacular catch to restrict New Zealand to a modest 232-9, Australia slumped to 44-5 against inspired new ball bowling from quicks Trent Boult and Matt Henry under lights. A composed Green and Alex Carey (85) turned the match on its head with a brilliant 158-run partnership to overwhelm an increasingly ragged New Zealand attack.

Australia vs New Zealand, 1st ODI, Live Score Updates: Australia captain Aaron Finch won the toss and opted to bowl first against New Zealand in the first ODI of the three-match series at the Cazaly's Stadium in Cairns. Australia had last won the series against Zimbabwe 2-1, but it is important to remember that the side suffered a seven-wicket loss in the third and final ODI. On the other hand, New Zealand are coming off a successful tour of the West Indies where they won both ODI and T20I series. It would be interesting to see what team combination both teams go in with.

Ruthless Australia wrapped up the one-day international series against Zimbabwe with a crushing eight-wicket victory on Wednesday in Townsville.
David Warner might be an Australian player but he always keeps impressing his Indian fans, sometimes with his breathtaking stroke play, sometimes with his electric fielding and sometimes with his social media posts. Given that Warner has been a part of the Indian Premier League for more than a decade, Warner also celebrates the Indian festivals. Warner had also wished his Indian fans on Independence Day this month. However, now the southpaw has sent wishes to his fans on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi.
Zimbabwe in the second one-day international on Wednesday, giving the home side an unassailable 2-0 series lead in Townsville. After being sent in to bat, Zimbabwe were unable to repeat their respectable performance from game one, crumbling for 96 all out in 27.5 overs. In reply, Australia peeled off 100-2 in 14.4 overs before a modest weekday crowd. "Pretty clinical today," Starc said in the post-match news conference. "Some guys are coming off some cricket, others are coming off a few weeks of no matches. I think everyone's finding a nice rhythm." The left-armer recorded figures of 3-24 and bowled with pace to clean up Zimbabwe's top-order. The unfancied tourists never recovered after losing 25-3 inside the first powerplay, including the wicket of Sunday's top-scorer, Wesley Madhevere, trapped lbw for nought.
