"Australia will go into the WACA Test full of confidence and holding a four-point lead in the multi-format series after seeing off South Africa by 110 runs (DLS) in the final ODI on a soggy Sydney evening.
The game started under sunny blue skies at North Sydney Oval, as half-centuries from Alyssa Healy (60 off 73) and Beth Mooney (82no off 91) propelled Australia to 9-277 despite a career-best display from Masabata Klaas (4-56).
Early strikes with the ball then had the Proteas wobbling at 4-63 when the wet weather set in.
When play eventually resumed more than 90 minutes later, South Africa were set an unlikely revised target of 238 from 31 overs to take out the series.
Any hopes the tourists had of pulling off an historic series win were then doused as Alana King (4-26) ran riot, taking four wickets in 11 balls as the Proteas were bowled out for 127 in 24.3 overs.
The result mean the Proteas cannot win the multi-format series outright, with Australia now holding an 8-4 leading after taking out the ODI leg 2-1.
