He was well supported by Mark Waugh, as the pair added a strong 114-run opening partnership. Later, Andrew Symonds provided the finishing fireworks, smashing 34 off just 13 balls to take Australia beyond the 300-run mark. 💣 New Zealand responded bravely, with Nathan Astle leading the charge with a well-made 81.
