As ironic as it may sound, but a test match got wrapped up within 3 days in Australia! The historic day and night test played at the Adelaide Oval was a thrilling affair, as the hosts managed to get past the line from a rather precarious position. It was due to the calm head of Shaun Marsh, that Australia clinched the Adelaide test, to win the series 2-0. Meanwhile, this was New Zealand’s first test series loss in more than 30 months. They last lost to England in the summer of 2013.

Nevill or Hazelwood for MOTM ? My vote for Nevill – crunch runs in match where they were scarce & very tidy behind the stumps #AUSvNZ

NZ cricket team ‘just weren’t hard enough long enough’. Reckon most of the tv audience squirmed in their seats on that one? #AUSvNZ
