Australia has extended its ODI dominance by beating New Zealand by six wickets in the first One Day International at Mount Maunganui.
Key points:
The Australian women's cricket team has set an all-time record with their 22nd consecutive win in an ODI
The six-wicket win over New Zealand women in Mount Maunganui took the team past Ricky Ponting's Australian men's side that won 21 straight matches
The last time the Australian team lost was against England women in October 2017
Australia now has a winning streak of 22, overtaking Ricky Ponting's 2003 men's side for the longest run of victories in any form of international cricket.
Half-centuries from Alyssa Healy (65) and Ellyse Perry (56), plus a big six from Ashleigh Gardiner (53) off the final ball to clinch the win helped Australia knock off the runs in 38.3 overs.
