Yorkshire star Brook not only bowled Williamson but also took the most important wicket of the innings. Actually, in the last session of the day, English bowlers Stuart Broad and James Anderson were unable to bowl due to treatment. English skipper Ben Stokes tossed the ball toward Brook and asked him to bowl. Brook in his innocuous spell Broke the partnership of Kane Williamson and Tom Blundell, who added 158 runs for the sixth wicket.

In the 152nd over of New Zealand's second innings, Williamson poked Harry Brook down the leg bowl for a leg glance and failed to get the wanted results. The ball directly went to Ben Foakes, who caught it but didn't appeal. However, Joe Root and Brook convinced the captain to take the review and the Third umpire overturned the On-field decision.
