focal point of New Zealand's batting slump against Australia was a one-handed screamer by Steve Smith to dismiss captain Kane Williamson.
However, Australians should have had prized wicket much earlier in session, with 29-year-old faintly edging a delivery from Pat Cummins through to keeper when he was on 13. Despite Smith's insistence, captain Tim Paine chose t to review delivery. It turned out to be a bad decision with ultra edge showing a spike when ball went past Williamson's bat.
