Australia played their 1000th ODI match on Tuesday, becoming only the second team after India to do so in the history of the format.

Australia accomplished this milestone during the third and final ODI against West Indies at Canberra. This landmark match turned out to be a memorable one for the Aussies as well, as they bundled out West Indies for just 86 in 24.1 overs and chased down the target in just 6.5 overs.

With this, they also clean-swept the series 3-0. In 1,000 ODIs, Australia has won 609, lost 348, tied nine and 34 ended in no result.

Their win percentage is 60.90. Besides Australia, only India has managed to play 1,000 ODI matches. In 1,055 ODIs, India has won 559, lost 443, nine have ended in a tie and 44 matches failed to produce a result.

Leg-spinner Adam Zampa knocked over the middle order to finish with 4-34 as the home side were skittled for 102 in 17 overs at Eden Park. New Zealand lost early wickets and always looked unlikely to match the visitors, who were dismissed for 174 in the final over. Only Glenn Phillips provided resistance with 42 but New Zealand's hopes were buried when he was caught at long-on off Zampa in the 14th over.
