Adelaide: Australia clinched the three-match series against New Zealand after claiming a tense three-wicket win over the tourists in the game's first-ever day-night Test match at the Adelaide Oval on Sunday.

Chasing a target of 187, Australia lost seven wickets on day three before they crossed the victory line as Trent Boult returned to form in a superb fashion by claiming a five-wicket haul with the pink ball in their second innings.
