Australia win 3rd test; claim series 3-0 sweep over New Zealand

Australia quickly wrapped up victory after dominating with the bat first and then sweeping away the tourists in a devastating bowling spell.

The 35-year-old overhauled the tally of 7,172 Stephen Fleming managed in 111 matches between 1994 and 2008.

Australia declared their second innings at 217 for two with David Warner scoring an unbeaten century.

The rock-solid number three reached his highest Test score of 215 in Sydney.

The right-arm seamer will continue to bowl in the test.

The South African-born Labuschagne has now scored four centuries in seven Test innings.

The rock-solid No.3 was unconquered on 73 with Steve Smith on 42 as Australia reached tea at 182 for two.

Shane Warne, who has championed Swepson, said in a column for the Sydney Daily Telegraph Thursday that he would like to see him play.

Spinner Mitchell Santner is also unwell and did not practise on Thursday.
