    World champions Australia recorded their record highest score against New Zealand as they thrashing the Silver Ferns 68-48 in their Quad Series netball clash in Sydney on Sunday.

    The Australians' points tally eclipsed their previous best against their arch-rivals of 67 set in 1992.

    It was also the Diamonds' biggest winning margin over New Zealand in 12 years.

    Susan Pratley made 29 of 32 attempts while fellow Australian shooter Catherine Cox made 29 of 36 in front of 13,640 at Allphones Arena.

    The Diamonds surged out to lead 19-9 at quarter-time and increased the margin at every break.
