Cricket World Cup 2015: Favourites can be bowled out - Marks

BBC Test Match Special's former England off-spinner Vic Marks believes New Zealand's thrilling win over Australia shows that the tournament favourites "can be bowled out cheaply".

The Kiwis dismissed Australia for just 151, but then struggled at the crease themselves and needed a dramatic six from Kane Williamson to seal victory with one wicket remaining.

Australia's Mitchell Starc (6-28) and New Zealand's Trent Boult (5-27) were the pick of the bowlers in a match that saw 14 wickets taken by left-arm bowlers.
