England snatched a dramatic final-ball victory to take a 4-0 lead over Australia in their one-day series.
The hosts needed seven runs off the last over and a single off the final ball to pass Australia's testing 225.
Shelley Nitschke hit 71 off 106 balls and Karen Rolton struck 52 as Australia recovered from a poor start.
Charlotte Edwards (65) and Lydia Greenway (50) then impressed for England while Laura March and Holly Colvin held their nerve at the end.

606: DEBATE
|
England had beaten Australia in the semi-finals of the recent World Twenty20 and heaped further misery on their rivals by claiming yet another one-day victory.
Australia were determined to salvage some pride from the series but were quickly in trouble as they were two wickets down without scoring a run.
But Nitschke and Rolton helped the visiting team to a very respectable 225.
England's reply saw them lose regular wickets until Edwards and Greenway put on a 113-stand to take the side to 191-4.
It was soon 209-8 as Edwards was run out, Jenny Gunn - out for a golden duck - and Greenway were bowled, while Katherine Brunt also fell cheaply.
But March struck 14 from as many balls and Colvin eight from seven to steer England home.
The final match of the series takes place at Lord's on Tuesday.
