After early hiccups at 61/4, Australia were rescued by Ricky Ponting (52) and the ever-reliable *Michael Bevan (84 off 121)**, who paced his innings brilliantly. Ian Harvey (28 off 22) gave them a fiery start, but Daniel Vettori’s outstanding spell (10-0-20-2) tightened the screws. Bevan’s late acceleration lifted Australia to 225/8. In reply, New Zealand never found momentum. Nathan Bracken (2/22) and Ian Harvey (1/22) struck early blows before Brad Hogg (2/36) removed Jacob Oram and the key man Scott Styris (54). From 143/6, the Kiwi lower order collapsed, eventually bowled out for 181, just crossing the bonus-point threshold. Australia’s all-round effort ensured a clinical win, while Bevan once again proved why he was regarded as the master finisher. ⏱️ Key Moments Ian Harvey blitz (28 off 22) → AUS 33/0 in quick time Tuffey double-strike → Harvey & Maher gone back-to-back (33/2) Vettori magic spell (10-0-20-2) → removes Ponting (52) & Clarke Michael Bevan 84* (anchoring rescue innings, late flourish) → AUS 225/8 Bracken removes Nevin & Vincent early → NZ 38/2 Fleming (29) & Styris (54) rebuild before Harvey & Hogg break through Hogg traps Oram & removes Styris → NZ 143/6 NZ collapse to 181 all out → AUS win by 44 runs 🏏 Match Facts: Match: Australia vs New Zealand, TVS Cup 2003, Guwahati Venue: Nehru Stadium, Guwahati Date: November 9, 2003 Result: Australia won by 44 runs Man of the Match: Michael Bevan (84* off 121) 👉 Subscribe for more classic TVS Cup 2003 highlights, Bevan specials, and vintage ODI thrillers! #ausvsnz #cricketmax #highlights #finisher
