Harris came back superbly to concede only eight runs from his next three overs to help apply the pressure which saw Ross Taylor, batting at No.3, caught in the deep by Hussey from Hopes' bowling for 15 off 37 balls.
Newcomer Shanan Stewart was tempted to try and loft Hauritz back over his head only to be caught at deep mid-on for four from nine balls. Scott Styris succumbed to Hopes with eight from 19 balls while Vettori hit 12 from 18 before he was trapped leg before wicket by Johnson.
Once McCullum was dismissed in the 25th over, the third of three wickets to fall in the space of 10 runs, New Zealand was forced into survival mode and it wasn't until Tuffey launched into off-spinner Hauritz that New Zealand managed to regain scoring rhythm.
