9 best images from the 3rd day's play of 2nd Test between Australia and New Zealand
Day three of the second Test was dominated by two Kiwis and an Aussie. Unfortunately for the hosts, Kane Williamson’s ton and Ross Taylor’s double ton gave New Zealand the upper hand in the WACA Test as they finished on 510/6 in response to Australia’s 559/9 dec.While Mitchell Starc’s 160.4 kmph yorker to Taylor will go down in the recordbooks as the second-fastest delivery in Test history, it mattered little in the context of this game as the Aussie fielders let slip the opportunities he had created.From the first day of Kiwi domination of the series so far, here are the 10 best images.
#1 Man of the moment
Without a shadow of a doubt, the day belonged to a certain Ross Taylor. Not only did he record his highest First-class score, but he also became the fifth Kiwi to cross 5,000 runs. The bad news for Australia is that he is still batting on 235*.
