Match factsDecember 6, 2016 Start time 1420 local (0320 GMT)Big PictureNew Zealand must have left the Sydney Cricket Ground on Sunday night thinking, if only. If only they had asked for a review when Steven Smith was given not-out by umpire Mick Martell after being trapped lbw on 14, the first ODI might have unfolded quite differently. Trent Boults fine delivery had swung in and trapped Smith in front, but New Zealand declined to refer Martells decision upstairs. There was plenty of chat afterwards about that, New Zealand coach Mike Hesson said. There were two sounds and the possibility of an inside edge. Were all well aware there wasnt. That was the thinking and you could understand it. It was a little bit frustrating. The reason it was frustrating was that Smith went on to accumulate 164 and set up a big win for Australia.The teams now move on to Canberra with Australia 1-0 up in the three-match series, so New Zealand must win at the Manuka Oval on Tuesday to have any hope of retaining the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy. The good news for New Zealand is that they had one batsman who looked every bit as dangerous as Smith at the SCG, but unfortunately for them, Martin Guptill couldnt go quite as deep into the innings as Smith, and fell for 114 off 102 balls. The toss may be particularly important in Canberra, where big runs are generally available, and the team batting first has won the six most recent ODIs.Form guideAustralia: WLLLL (last five completed matches, most recent first) New Zealand: LLWLWIn the spotlightA golden duck in Sydney was hardly the start Aaron Finch wanted in this series, but he will be pleased to arrive in Canberra for the second game. Take a look at Finchs scores in his three ODIs at the Manuka Oval: 38, 109 and 107. His last two hundreds at the venue have come against South Africa and India, and Finch could use a big score again: in 18 ODIs since the end of the previous home summer, Finch has averaged just 26.25.After New Zealand lost Guptill, their hopes of chasing down the hefty target in Sydney faded. But, while Colin Munro was at the crease, there remained at least a tiny glimmer of hope. Munro struck four fours and one six in his innings of 49, and put on 50 for the eighth wicket with Matt Henry. While they were together, the required run rate hovered around nine an over, but at least it didnt balloon too much further. But when they both holed out in one Pat Cummins over - the 44th of the innings - the dream was dashed. It was a different sort of knock than what Im used to playing, Munro said. Given that role to try and take things a bit deeper in the innings sort of suits my game. Hopefully, in the games to come, we can have a few extra batters around me at the end and have a bit of a hit.Team newsGlenn Maxwell and James Faulkner were the two members of Australias 13-man squad left out in Sydney, and the selectors may wish to retain the winning XI in an attempt to secure the series.Australia (possible) 1 David Warner, 2 Aaron Finch, 3, Steven Smith (capt), 4 George Bailey, 5 Mitchell Marsh, 6 Travis Head, 7 Matthew Wade (wk), 8 Mitchell Starc, 9 Adam Zampa, 10 Pat Cummins, 11 Josh Hazlewood.Lockie Ferguson picked up a wicket in his first international over, but the rest of his debut was rather costly: he leaked 73 runs from nine overs, sent down four no-balls and therefore four free hits, and also cramped up. Tim Southee might come in for Ferguson in Canberra. New Zealand may also wonder if their batting order could be strengthened by the inclusion of Henry Nicholls.New Zealand (possible) 1 Tom Latham, 2 Martin Guptill, 3 Kane Williamson (capt), 4 Jimmy Neesham, 5 Colin Munro, 6 BJ Watling (wk), 7 Mitchell Santner, 8 Colin de Grandhomme, 9 Matt Henry, 10 Tim Southee, 11 Trent Boult.Pitch and conditionsManuka Oval is the kind of venue where big totals are on offer batting first, and chasing can be a challenge. The forecast for Tuesday is for a shower or two and a top temperature of 28 degrees centigrade.Stats and triviaIn Sydney, Guptill became the tenth-fastest player to 5000 ODI runs, behind Hashim Amla, Viv Richards, Virat Kohli, Brian Lara, Gordon Greenidge, AB de Villiers, Sourav Ganguly, Dean Jones and Graeme Smith.This will be Kane Williamsons 100th one-day international.Adam Zampa enters this game as the worlds leading ODI wicket-taker in 2016, with 30 scalps at 27.80. His feat is all the more impressive given he didnt make his ODI debut until February in New Zealand.QuotesWe were a little bit frustrated with the fact we chased the game with the ball. We had some good plans in place and perhaps we need to back those a bit more. We werent far off. Mike Hesson, the New Zealand coach, after the loss in Sydney Nike Zoom Sverige . "No difference at all," chirped U.S. roommate and linemate James van Riemsdyk. "Its still the same cranky Phil. Vapormax Flyknit Herr .C. -- Al Jefferson joked that he feels he can score from anywhere on the court. http://www.airvapormaxsverige.com/nike-zoom-sverige/fly.html . -- Ken Appleby made 32 saves for his first shutout of the season to lead the Oshawa Generals to a 2-0 win over the Belleville Bulls on Wednesday in Ontario Hockey League action. Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 35 Herr . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. Air Max Tn Dam . The 43-year-old closer, in his 19th and final big league season, has said hed like to play the outfield. Yankees manager Joe Girardi says hes thinking about allowing Rivera to do it this weekend, when the Yankees finish their season with a three-game series at the Houston Astros.The Detroit Red Wings scored a pair of goals 31 seconds apart in the second period on their way to a 3-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks, taking a 2-1 series lead. While both the Red Wings and Blackhawks were two of the better possession teams in the league this year, if the Red Wings are going to upset the number one seed in the West, they likely need to get better goaltending than the Blackhawks and, in Game Three, Detroit G Jimmy Howard turned aside 39 of 40 shots, doing his part for the Winged Wheel. As usual, Henrik Zetterberg and Justin Abdelkader paced the Red Wings with five shots on goal. Zetterberg (4.3 per game) and Abdelkader (3.1 per game) are the Wings top volume shooters in this postseason. Abdelkader also recorded six hits, giving him a team-high 37 hits in eight playoff games. Frustrated Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews put seven shots on goal and had a dominant possession game, yet remains without a goal in these playoffs. Toews and Bostons Jaromir Jagr are tied for the second-most shots without a goal in the postseason, with 28 (Tyler Seguin has 35). Detroit got goals from the supporting cast. The first goal was rookiie Gustav Nyquist, with a nifty one-on-one move against Brent Seabrook, from fellow first-year NHLers Damien Brunner and Joakim Andersson.dddddddddddd Then, it was Drew Miller (who also led the Wings with four blocked shots), playing in his second game of the playoffs, from Patrick Eaves and Cory Emmerton. The end result was not without some measure of controversy as the Blackhawks had a goal, which would have tied the score at two, disallowed in the third period as Andrew Shaw was ruled in the crease. Shortly thereafter, Pavel Datsyuk gave the Wings an insurance marker and that was that. While Chicago cant be pleased to be down two games to one, they should also take heart. Theyve recorded 40 or more shots on goal in two of the three games in this series and the Wings had allowed 40 shots on goal once all season (55 games) prior to Round Two, so chances are there; they simply have to find a way to get to Howard to improve the outcome.
