Show Preview

Australia will be eyeing off claiming a series win on Day 4 of their Boxing Day Test against New Zealand at the MCG. Join The Roar for live scores from 10:30am (AEDT).

The Aussie pace attack was relentless on Day 3, as Pat Cummins claimed his fifth five-wicket-haul and James Pattinson enjoyed his first home MCG Test in four years, taking 3/34.

Kiwi opener Tom Latham was the only Black Cap to offer resistance with the bat, bringing up a half-century after getting a second chance following a Steve Smith drop in the slips.

But otherwise, the Black Caps had few answers to the questions posed by the quicks, getting bowled out for 148 inside 55 overs – New Zealand’s lowest ever first innings score in a Test in Australia.

Tim Paine opted not to enforce the follow-on despite his side boasting a first-innings lead of 319, deciding to give the bowlers a rest instead.

After cruising to 1/100, the home side would lose 3/10 with Steve Smith falling to a Neil Wagner short ball for the fourth time of the series.

The Aussies will resume on 4/137 to begin the fourth day with Matthew Wade and Travis Head at the crease.
