Australia faced a tough challenge on the first day as New Zealand's bowling was spirited. However, Cameron Green's outstanding performance in the first innings helped Australia regain stability. In the second innings, the Kiwis staged an impressive comeback, limiting Australia to a modest 160 runs.

Just when New Zealand seemed to be in a good position to chase the target, veteran off-spinner Nathan Lyon turned the game around by orchestrating a spectacular collapse of the Kiwi batting lineup. Lyon's exceptional spin wizardry led Australia to a decisive win, denying New Zealand the chance to chase the daunting target. The match was intense and full of gripping moments, with intense bowling battles and decisive batting manoeuvres, culminating in Australia's victory.
