Wicketkeeper Alex Carey made an unbeaten 98 and shared a 140-run partnership with Mitchell Marsh which guided Australia through various hazards to a three-wicket win over New Zealand in the second Test here and a 2-0 sweep of the series.
Throughout the day as the contest played out on a relatively mild fourth-day pitch, both sides had moments when they took control. But it was Marsh’s innings of 80 and Carey’s steady hand which guided Australia to victory. Its total of 281-7 completed the 14th-highest successful fourth innings run chase in test history.
