Full time: NZ 61-52

The Silver Ferns with a great win to keep the series alive. Maddy Gordon and Karin Burger were incredible today.

This is now NINE straight losses for AUS in NZ. It's 1,699 days since the Diamonds last won there.

3/4 time: NZ 49-39

Nweke 35/36 (97%)
Walmsley 8/10 (80%)

Garbin 22/24 (92%)
Dwyer 6/6 (100%)

A dominant 3rd Q has the Silver Ferns well on top. The Diamonds have no answer for Grace Nweke and they're making a lot of very basic errors.

Lots of changes being made. Kimiora Poi and Sophie Dwyer both came on in that Q for their first court time of the series. AUS has 10 turnovers to half time. They only had 9 & 10 in total in the first 2 tests. Maddy Gordon has 11 assists and 3 pickups.

Fun fact 1: NZ hasn't beaten AUS without Ameliaranne Ekenasio in their team since 2018.

Fun fact 2: AUS has lost 8 straight games in NZ. Their last win was in 2021... when Ekenasio was being rested!

Stats from tonight's second test in Sydney. Once again, a very tidy game from Australia. They've had just 19 general play turnovers in two test matches combined. By comparison, the Silver Ferns had that many tonight.

Full time: AUS 68-51

Another 17-goal win for Australia and a very similar score to test 1. Liz Watson had a cracking game and was POTM in her 50th match as Diamonds' captain.

Australia leads 2-0 as we cross the ditch for the final 2 games.

Garbin 33/39 (85%)
Horjus 7/12 (58%)

Nweke 26/31 (84%)
Heffernan 7/8 (88%)

What a quarter to AUS! Georgie Horjus came on for her first game at GA against NZ. She opened up the attack end beautifully, but struggled for accuracy.

Garbin 19/23 (83%)
Austin 11/12 (92%)

Nweke 20/24 (83%)
Heffernan 4/5 (80%)

Undoubtedly NZ's best quarter of the series so far. Australia's lead reached 7, before the Ferns came storming back, thanks largely to their defence.
