Mighty Kiwis giving it their best shot. Should be a tense day five. Aussies must be favouriites though.
Not as good a game for GJ's mate.

Head goes early. Starting to look like NZ could win this.

But no. Big partnership between Mitch3 and Carey snuffs out the Kiwi resistance...

then (just as I start getting a bit of confidence), debutant Sears gets a Double Mitch - Marsh and Starc in successive balls - to leave Aus needing 59 runs with 3 wickets in hand.
Down to 54 runs now. Getting very exciting.

Poor series for NZ having lost both tests that too at home. Great for Australia to win an away series.
First won by a huge margin of 172 runs followed by this 3 wicket win.

Top win for the Baggy Greens, thanks to the lower order. Well done you Aussies.

That was a good test, and a very good win. NZ had the running of the game for lengthy periods - most particularly last night. I expected we would lose the match when it started this morning.
Lots of luck went Aus' way last night and this morning, but it was a good effort from March, Carey and Cummins. A pity Carey didn't get his century.
