Last time Australia and New Zealand played each other in an ICC tournament final was during the 2009 Champions Trophy in South Africa. In that match, New Zealand struggled while batting first and posted 200-9 in their 50 overs. With their then captain Daniel Vettori pulling out with a hamstring injury, his deputy Brendon McCullum was forced to step up as skipper. McCullum did not trouble the scorers as he got out for a duck in the fourth over.
