McCullum fined

McCullum lingered at the crease after he was given out lbw to Muttiah Muralitharan for one and was clearly unhappy with the decision.

New Zealand went on to lose by six wickets and skipper Stephen Fleming said he was already thinking of run rates after watching his team's World Cup unbeaten record end.

"You could lose by 30 or 40 runs in a tight game and that's going to affect your run rate massively down the track," Fleming said.

New Zealand, who need one win from their last two Super Eights matches to clinch a place in the semi-finals, play South Africa in St George's on Saturday and Australia on Friday.
