New Zealand Edge Australia in Thriller SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 2015 New Zealand edge Australia in thriller AUCKLAND: New Zealand booked their place in the World Cup quarter-finals with a narrow one- wicket win over Australia in a sensational finish to their Pool A match in Auckland yesterday. With six needed for win and just one wicket in hand, Kane Williamson (45 not out) hit Pat Cummins for a straight six to seal the victory, to the delight of most of a packed 40,000 crowd at Eden Park, who saw their side almost snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
