PERTH (Reuters) - The second test between Australia and New Zealand ended in a draw on Tuesday with the tourists 217 runs short of their victory target of 321 on a rain-disrupted fifth and final day at the WACA.

The tourists had made 104 for two when bad light brought an end to the game, leaving Australia 1-0 up in the series going into the third test in Adelaide courtesy of their 208-run win in Brisbane last week.
