An ODI just like the good old days

New Zealand all out 218 in 47.4 overs.
Australia 224/8 in 48.4 overs.

Almost an identical scenario to all those games in the B and H World Series Cup back in the early 1980s. One team gets around 215-220 runs in the first innings and the team batting second just gets over the line with a handful of balls to spare. Usually accompanied by Bill Lawry wetting himself.
