PERTH: Australia's disciplined attack overcame the absence of Josh Hazlewood to bowl New Zealand out cheaply in the opening session on the third day as the hosts gained a lead of 251 in the first test on Saturday.
Openers David Warner and Joe Burns safely played out one over, as Australia reached the long break at one for 0.Both teams are without a paceman after debutant New Zealand quick Lockie Ferguson, himself a replacement for injured spearhead Trent Boult, damaged his calf on day one.Resuming at 109-5, New Zealand’s hopes of reducing the deficit rested on veterans Taylor and BJ Watling taking advantage of the favourable batting conditions.
Watling’s luck, however, ran out when he chopped onto his stumps and was bowled by Pat Cummins for eight.Colin de Grandhomme played several attacking strokes before falling controversially for 23 when he was adjudged caught on the glove off a fierce bouncer from Starc. De Grandhomme reviewed but third umpire Marais Erasmus stuck with the on-field decision after a long deliberation.
