The injury Williamson has faced is rare, not serious and has seen by five more people in the world said Stead talking on Williamson’s recovery, Tommy Simsek the team physio said “It’s not a major injury and we are hopeful that in short period of time he will be back to full noise”

If Williamson won’t play for the third test than New Zealand has a back-up for him in the form of Will Young the 26-year-old who plays for Central District in the Super Smash league and was the 4th highest run-scorer with 320 runs in 11 innings playing at the average of 32.00. Young can probably make his International debut in the final test.
