Australia 277-9, beat South Africa 127, by 110 runs (DLS)Victory gives hosts 2-1 triumph in their one-day series
Australia have sealed victory in the best-of-three one-day international series against South Africa, avenging their upset loss in match two with a rain-affected 110-run triumph at North Sydney Oval.
After winning the toss on Saturday, captain Alyssa Healy (60) laid the groundwork for the hosts’ 277 for nine before slow-starting Beth Mooney rolled to 82 not out. The pair’s efforts left the Proteas requiring their largest-ever successful run chase to repeat Wednesday’s surprise victory and seal a series win.
