Score: NZ 244. Taylor 76. Australia win. Hussey brothers in action.
NZ batted first and were off to a quiet start. Brendon McCullum whose shoulder took a nasty blow in the 3rd ODI, was back at the top of the NZ batting order, but didn't get a continuous run of the strike and when NZ did lose a bunch of wickets, they got stuck for a while. A super knock by Ross Taylor and blows by other lower-order batsmen ensured NZ got to 244 at the end of 50 overs.
Mike and David Hussey got together to pull Australia out of a slightly dicey situation to a win in the 49th over. NZ dropped a crucial catch and didn't seize a couple of half-chances, but a dominant Aussie performance for the most part.
