 Aus 180-3 (32 ovs) vs NZ 183 | SCORECARD

Henry comes back and he provides New Zealand with a rare moment of cheer with the wicket of Clarke.

Clarke, who slammed 74 from 72 balls, inside edges one back on to his stumps and walks back to a standing ovation from the packed MCG.

Rival captain Brendon McCullum comes and shakes Clarke's hands before he makes his way back to the pavilion.

Clarke ends on a high with a superlative knock in his final ODI and must be disappointed at getting dismissed so close to a famous win.

Nine runs to win as Shane Watson makes his way to the middle.

Smith flicks the fifth ball through midwicket for two runs and steers the last ball past point for two to bring up his fifty from 66 balls, his fifty half-century in succession.
