Brendon McCullum was leading New Zealand for the final time in limited-overs games
Australia's captain Steven Smith won the toss and chose to send New
Zealand in to bat in Brendon McCullum's last ODI, the third
Chappell-Hadlee Trophy match at Seddon Park in Hamilton.
New Zealand left out Trent Boult due to illness, while Mitchell Santner
was also missing due to a foot ailment ahead of the Test matches. Their
places were taken by Doug Bracewell and Ish Sodhi. McCullum admitted at
the toss that he also would have bowled first.
The visitors named an unchanged side after their victory in Wellington
on Saturday, meaning Joel Paris remained on the sidelines after being
called in as cover for Kane Richardson.
It is a fine day in Hamilton and a flat pitch looks good for batting, with a packed crowd in attendance.
