Watch cricket highlights: Australia vs New Zealand – the Final of the 2009 Champions Trophy played on October 5, 2009.
Scoreline: NZ 200/9 Guptill 40, Broom 37, Franklin 33 | Hauritz 3 wickets, Lee 2
Aus win the 2009 edition: Shane Watson 105, Cameron White 62 | Mills 10-2-27-3, Bond 10-2-34-1
Foreplay: Nothing like a big tournament win to lift a long finger (on the lips) to the Australia-are-finished sniggers and (gleeful) laments regarding retirements.
The return of Watson (at least to international viewers) began under Warne in the 2008 IPL, and in Ponting he’s found another strong captain with the shrewdness to let him bask, frolic and howl in the barn sun so long as match-boxes are kept at a safe distance. White on the other hand has a more self-made look to his return and so despite the super effort from Mills-Bond to have Aus worried in the first ten overs, it was fairly a calm chase after that.
It’s safe to say now that the rebuilding-process for Aus is complete and while the difference between them and other teams is not what it was a few years back (in fact, in some conditions, there might not be any difference), world cricket is now once again seriously competitive after a long time.
Update: Vettori’s out with a hamstring problem which was evident in his outfielding during the semis. Jeetan Patel comes in after all, and NZ are having a bat having won the toss.
Preplay Impotence: With Ryder out, NZ’s best shot would perhaps be to have Australia chase. Nathan McCullum in place of Broom would be ideal but since he’s not even in the squad, maybe Jeetan Patel would be a neat idea. The other McCullum after a brief visit to calm-Brendon has returned to his going-nuts game. Which is probably the best option for his team. Also, Ross Taylor’s last 3 scores have been 4, 1, 38. So the Taylor law of averages is kind of leaning to him doing well today. All in all, both sides have very very watchable batsmen and bowlers, so hopefully it will be a good final.

go on Australia !!! ponting i want one hundred more
I’m so damn keen for these highlights, I got here before the game even started.
It’s been a long wait for a real showdown between OZ and NZ. I hope it’s a good one.
Admin, I owe one for creating this site and keeping it running. It keeps me sane while living in a country where a conversation about quickly cricket turns into a conversation about an insect that screeches or about the bizarre habits of the English.
DOD, an Australian in France
Hey! Kiwis all the way – about time they win something. NZ all the way baby!
In my view, Australia will be very happy to meet NZ in the ground today instead of Paki. It is much easier for Aus to win NZ I believe. Anyway, I would like to see a great much today. No mutter who wins, but will be happy if NZ wins.
well dont Nz reaching in d final,, Great efforts,,,, Vettori U r d real hero,,,,
I hope mitchell johnson can make all the difference in this match. Just love seeing him dominate as he has done pretty well in this champions trophy(hitting a 73 off about 40 something balls ?, getting a superb run out with the west indies). Hope watto and punter can do something special too. Cmon pile on those runs and beat those kiwis.
Go NZ…..i hope you win today….
good that NZ is batting first. they will set a low target. so, arrogant ponting will not get a chance to make another hundred. that way our great sachins record will continue to remain. no paki has ever been such a great batsman.
Go Australia!!!
afridi has and kamran akmal
too much aussies its time for kiwis 2 rock n roll its time to show that aussies are nothin mcculum and vettori and bond i know u guys can do it go ahead give hard time to brett lees and john son itz time 2 win d gamre
aus get chance because of riyder and vetory is out of game but tyler and mccalum is also chance of nzl – bond is tremp card good luc kiwies
dear zabb,
sachin is a diamond. kamran akmal and afridi are not even 100th as good as him. so be quiet
inzamam was 10 times more talented then sachin..stats are not everything boi..its the talent!
According to me NZ will win the final becoz they realy worked hard in their previous matches specialy against PAkis..
GO KIWIS GO…
i found that the sound and the picture don’t match up and i can hear the sound of the bat before the bowler bowls it.
Not sure what happened there
Hi…bharat, This is Solomon from Germany ….i love to watch criket….sorry to interept your conversation with pakistanis..but i have got something to tell u ….sachin is a gut batsman…lols but u havnt got players like Saeed anwer…Waseem Akram…Shoaib akhter ….Pakistanis are realy talented ,,,,what all they need just a proper Timetable for workout…There is no cricket without them…i love Waseem Akram
hello afridi!
inzamam and afridi are very good cricketers but sachin is the hero in cricket. he is the best forever.
bye bye n zealand
…how is india or pakistan related to aus/nz. admin… to the rescue!
..watson that basta*d, imagine him in the 2020 league in this form.
@sam – Heh – A day in the life.
But anyway, right now I’m more concerned with lawyers snapping at my heels and server problems. Request users to not repeatedly refresh the page when the site is unavailable as it worsens the situation.
cant watch a single video..technical problem..! WTF?!
It’s really sad one idiot is trying trash all your good work,
despite such idiots, you are doing admirable job admin … we all wish you good luck in getting over with these problems.
@sammy – if you get a tech problem issue with the video, try after a while – the videos are up and fine – will be a temp issue if at all
hey admin, when will the HD vids be up. these are low res.
I’ve been loving this site for the last few months. Keep up the good work.
What are the lawyers troubling you about?
@Cakehammer – click on SD at the bottom of the player and change to HQ for a better quality video.
The lawyers – the usual no rights over the footage crap.
Good effort from NZ. Would have been a different game if Vettori had been able to play and tie down the middle overs (and probably hit his customary 40-odd while batting at the end). Still, Aussies too good on the day, especially that Watson guy. Second place is good, and the winners’ jackets were lame anyway
Awesome bowling from Bond and Mills all the same.
Australia 1st, NZ 2nd, Pak 3rd in this tournament (cos England got hammered in their semi). Look forward to the next one.
Oh, and thanks again for all your hard work Admin. Really enjoyed the highlights. You are a scholar and a gentleman!
According to me india will win the final.you own a cricket team, not Indian crickewell be Virender Sehwag’s last with Delhi Daredevilst.india iPL 20 WIN 2010.
This site is awesome… thanks so much for posting these videos!!!
I hate hearing people say that AUS only won because NZ had those players out, look who Aus had out- bracken the best ODI bowler there is, Clarke one of the better batsman goin around at the moment and brad hadin, and that boy can take a game away from u very quickly when he throws his bat!! Australia won because they are the better theam!!
Indian umpairs make the victory agains to Pakistan, that’s why NZ won the match against Pakistan
Hey admin,
Thanks for all the hard work…love the site and depend on it as an expat Aussie living in non cricketing lands. You rock, and like Jesus said…woe unto the lawyers.
Once again a million thanks.
Admin, hope you hit the lawyers for a six! You’re providing an exceptional service to all cricket fans around the globe in particular those who have no other avenue to watch these matches. Surely your edited highlights don’t infringe on their copyright laws unlike the dubious live-streaming sites? Good luck and keep ‘em coming.
Congrats the Aussies! Once they’re in a final there’s no stopping them. Wonder if it’d have made a difference if the Black Caps fielded first? Nevertheless well played.
Congratulation Australia.
Enjoy the Champion Traphy God bless you.
My Favorite Australia. Wonderful job Shen
Whatson nice bating.
Mir Alavi ( USA )
Go Australia! world no.1 in one-dayers and soon to be world no.1 in tests!!! C’mon!!!
Well unfortunately, edited or unedited highlights (not hosted on this site) make no difference to those who repeatedly claim this to be a live-streaming site to bully the server hosts.
bharat you said that pakistan has not have ever great batsman have not seen the inngs saeed anwar bets indians on at thier home and maked record 194 sachin never able to break that record ever and you said their is no batsman like sachin how funny.SO YOU BE QUITE. and may you not remember the last macth.
Love the ending..how they suddenly start rejoicing..ahaha..
Hussey’s reaction is priceless
btw – awesome highlights throughout the champions trophy admin.
vittori the key men
i allways says that without vittori nz cant win infact should have been played with injury his unabsence was a key loss
his presensy could give players a good strenth mccullam always play better game but in his own captancy he never play like a batsmen we have seen it yesterday
so this is the key factor.
hello admin …the videos are not opening here dude.when i open the site the space is just white in place of videos.i don know why ..cud you use another flash player please …if you have put it from youtube ..then i am able to download ..else i am not …
@manoj: Have you tried a refresh – sometimes the players don’t load. If you’ve already done that, it means you require a free flash player from Adobe.
Great Job is done by Australian and they well deserve the trophy. Many congrats
Aussies are too good. Very practical and no show off. They may sledge, but play well and fairly. That’s why they are cut ahead of rest. The only team which can play well on any kind of surface and conditions
Thanks for the highlights Admin.
But congrates to NZ for making the final. Anyways, the golden bat and the jackets looked awesome on the players and ricky throughly deserved the bat.
I loved the fact that AUS have won the Champiions Trophy but I would’ve loved a bit more thriller
Question: How did Pakistan and India get into this?
great win by australia
Like so many others, my hearty thanks to admin (whoever he/she/they may be!) – I don’t have much desire to give my cash to Sky, and am so frustrated that English cricket is hardly available on English TV. Plus a chance to see what goes on over the winter is fantastic. Admin, you rule! Good luck with your lawyers…
well, i really hoped nz to win but it didnt work out in the end…..
thx admin for the good work, so i could watch every game of the championship….
keep on with the good work
cheers & beers

PS: im trying to get a little cricket club in germany started….so, for the case you´re bored check http://www.myspace.com/ruhrpottcricket and give us a add….thx alot…
Hey Bharat! Sachin is not even 100th of Ponting. Ponting can beat him easily if he will also play above 400 matches. So, be quite, because our youngster beat him in this tournament.
G0ddamn I’m still facin the same technical problem since yesterday..! :S
@sam Whats the problem youre facing
nice win, but guys…lose the jackets.
i don’t reali know what exatcly the problem is but when i play the video it says “Technical difficulties have prevented this video from loading. please reload the page”,so when i refresh the page I keep gettin the same repeatitive meassage again n again..Neways thaks for the response..hope all the problems will be fixed soon
Cheers and bravo!!!This website is a dream site for any cricket lover who wants to See highlights rather than a complete whole a day. long game, For the people who live in countries where cricket is like a question to answer for Americans that name all of the states in U.S.A. This site is perfect for those Countries.
Love the Admin…”A day in the life”… funny.

nope, sorry but ur mistaken. thanks in advance for tomorrow
Oh ok. Found some youtube appearances of the clips – have updated them
thx Admin – enjoyed it.
I think Australia have done very well to win this Tournament with their ‘new look’ team.
Shame Vettori wasn’t fit for today – but NZ can hold their head up.
The Australian bowlers did a great job and really set this game up.
Believe it or not this icc championship was belonging to PAKISTAN they made Pakistan out with upmiring tricks
Watson is stil getting better
