New Zealand vs Australia 2nd Test Match Betting Tip

Kane Williamson couldn't have warmed up for this series any better than he did against South Africa. In the two Test series, the great scored three hundred in his four innings to inspire them to victory, including a fourth-innings unbeaten 133 in the second Test that was in the balance for some time. He had a first Test to forget, scoring just nine runs in total. However, he will be extra motivated to do well with this being his 100th Test match. Bet on Williamson to be the top first innings run scorer for New Zealand at 7/2 with Betfair.
