3rd ODI: David Warner Ton Powers Australia to Series Clean Sweep Over New Zealand

David Warner smashed his second straight hundred and Mitchell Starc bowled lethal reverse swing to spearhead Australia to a third emphatic win over New Zealand in the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy in Melbourne on Friday Dec 09,2016


The Australian vice-captain was run out on the last ball of the innings for 156 off 128 balls -- more than half of his team's 264 for eight total -- with 13 fours and four sixes.
It follows Warner's 119 off 115 balls against the Black Caps in Canberra on Tuesday.
Starc then led Australia to a series clean sweep helping to skittle New Zealand for 147 off 36.1 overs to reclaim the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy.
Starc bowled Henry Nicholls and Colin Munro with unplayable yorkers and then trapped Mitchell Santner leg before wicket with reverse swing to finish with three for 34.
David Warner, with 299 runs at 99.66 from the three matches, was named man of the match and man of the series after raising his 11th ODI century and seventh for the year.
Scorecard
Australia 264/8  in 50 Overs
New Zealand 147/10 in 36.1 Overs
Match Result - Australia won by 111 Runs
