The Black Caps will go into a series against world champions Australia with three straight ODI wins to their name after a rain-affected three-wicket win over Pakistan in the third and final match at Eden Park.
In-form duo Martin Guptill (82 off 81) and Kane Williamson (84 off 86) had played some key roles to the win, their record-breaking 159-run second wicket stand setting the chase up before a slight case of the wobbles struck.
