Australia have won hockey's Azlan Shah Cup with a 4-0 win over India in Malaysia on Saturday.
Graham Reid's Kookaburras are hitting form at the right time ahead of the Champions Trophy in London in June and the Rio Olympics in August, winning all of their fixtures in seven-team competition.
Tom Craig opened the scoring 25 minutes into the second quarter and added a second goal in the third quarter.
Matt Gohdes made it 3-0 on his 150th appearance then added some extra gloss to the scoreline four minutes from time by trapping an overhead pass from centre field and using a reverse stick hit to divert the ball into the net.
"It was a really first class performance for the boys today," said Reid.
"It was a really good defensive effort, one particularly in the third quarter and one towards the end of the game.
"The boys really worked hard throughout the game. It was great to see a couple of nice goals in there from Tom as well.
"There's a long way to go to Rio, so its important to celebrate these milestones, but we'll be back into training next week."
Earlier in the evening New Zealand defeated Malaysia to take out third place, by means of a shoot-out after the score was tied at 3 3 at the full time siren.
