Western Australia cruised to a seven-wicket win at the No 1 Sports Ground after New South Wales were bundled out for 97 in their second innings. New South Wales, who began the day precariously placed at 5 for 65, failed to capitalise on their first-innings advantage, as they added only 32 more runs on the final day, with none of their lower-order batsmen putting up a resistance. Ashton Agar was the pick of the bowlers, collecting 4 for 22, while David Moody chipped in with 3 for 22.
It meant Western Australia needed just 143 for victory, and despite losing two early wickets, a 98-run partnership between Michael Klinger (46) and Adam Voges (54*) guided the team home in 52 overs.
