Australia beat Brazil 76-70 in the fourth match of their four-nation women's basketball tour of China.

Forward Elyse Penaluna was in tremendous form for the Opals, scoring 28 points.

She had plenty of help from the likes of Abby Bishop (12 points) and Hanna Zavecz, who created havoc with her athleticism and creativity in attack, adding 11 points.

The victory avenged the Opals' defeat to the South Americans last week and they will now meet New Zealand in their next game on Thursday.

The Kiwis will head into the clash on the back of a dramatic one-point win over China, who have already sealed top spot in the tournament.
