<h1>“A Few Holes” in New Zealand’s Middle Order</h1>
Australia can exploit NZ weakness, Veteran keeper says "holes" have been revealed in unbeaten Kiwis' batting
Wicketkeeper Brad Haddin says Australia's quick bowlers found "a couple of gaps" in New Zealand's center request in their exciting World Cup misfortune to the competition co-has a month ago. Australia went around one wicket to the Black Caps in Auckland in an amusement which evaded the pattern of the opposition as ball ruled bat on the postage stamp-sized Eden Park venue.
Protecting 151, Michael Clarke's side went inside a bristle of taking an astounding escape from prison triumph, on account of a dazzling spell of quick bowling from Mitchell Starc.
"What it did wind up being was a decent display for the fans," Haddin told SEN radio today.
"In any case from our perspective, we simply had one of those days where we simply continued getting thumped over.
"The one thing we did take out of it (the misfortune in Auckland) was that we had the capacity put New Zealand under weight and I think we discovered a couple of openings there in their center request, in the event that you can get to it.
"I think whenever we play against them, on the off chance that we get the opportunity, there will be a considerable measure of weight on their top request on the grounds that that center request didn't like our pace I don't think."
Starc completed with six wickets, shattering the stumps four times including the wickets of second-drop Ross Taylor for one and No.5 Grant Elliot for a brilliant duck in back to back conveyances.
The Black Caps' driving run-scorers possess the main three positions in the batting request: McCullum (249), Williamson (182) and the commander's opening accomplice Martin Guptill (156), while Elliot (77), Taylor (53) and wicketkeeper-batsman Luke Ronchi (47) have been kept from circumstance.
Furthermore the lower request may not get an alternate open door before their quarter-last in Wellington on March 21 after McCullum won the throw and chose to bowl against Bangladesh in Hamilton today, the fifth straight time New Zealand have rocked the bowling alley first.
