Perry and Poulton crush New Zealand

Ellyse Perry took five wickets in an ODI for the first time to inspire Australia to yet another victory over New Zealand.

Perry took 5-31 as the home side bowled out the White Ferns for 162 all out, with no New Zealand player managing to make more than 25.

25-year-old Leah Poulton then hit an outstanding undefeated century, finishing on 104 not out, as batting alongside Shelley Nitschke she added an unbroken stand of 163 for the first wicket.

Australia now leads the Rose Bowl series 4-0.
