New Zealand rode a first-half try blitz to a 43-21 victory over ‌Australia on Saturday, extending their win streak over their rivals to 13 matches.

With the Bledisloe Cup already ​safely in the cupboard for a 24th year after last week's 50-19 win in Auckland, New Zealand exploded out of the blocks and crushed all thoughts of an upset with six tries ​before the break at Accor Stadium, Sydney.

Despite losing Jordie Barrett to a calf injury before kick-off and another centre ‌in Quinn Tupaea early on with a concussion, the All Blacks overwhelmed the Wallabies with power, pace and precision in the opening 40 minutes.
