Key batsman
Tom Latham
In the first two Tests the left-hander threatened, but failed, to produce an innings of note. In the third he did not go on with his great start to the extent he and the Black Caps would have liked, but he at least added some rigidity to a top-order lacking meaningful contributions - unsurprisingly Martin Guptill, surprisingly Kane Williamson.
Key bowler
Peter Siddle
Filling the void of the now-retired Mitch Johnson with Siddle was hardly a like-for-like replacement, but the benefit of it showed as Australia removed Kane Williamson cheaply for the first time in the series. Siddle, who bowled four maidens in the first session, wasted a review on a failed leg-before appeal against Ross Taylor, but it was of little consequence as he had the Black Caps batsman caught behind in his next over.
Key numbers
3.2
The stage of the innings, in terms of overs bowled, before the first pink-ball victim emerged: New Zealand's Martin Guptill, trapped leg-before by Josh Hazlewood.
15
Consecutive dot balls delivered to Kane Williamson, by Mitch Starc and Siddle, before the impressive Black Caps batsman was trapped leg-before, by Starc. Lyon also contributed to the shackling of him.
The moment
Eight minutes into the tea break, at 4.08pm local time, Adelaide Oval hosted a montage dedicated to Australia's 408th Test player, Phillip Hughes. On the one-year anniversary of his death, Australia's players and staff lingered just outside the boundary to watch a presentation on the big screens. All of them were wearing black armbands with "408" sewn into them, while the venue's famous old scoreboard featured a "Remembering 408" sign just below the roof of it.
