Melbourne, Dec 29: Umpire Nigel Llong was at the centre of criticism on Sunday for a poor call as Australia recorded a comprehensive 247-run victory over New Zealand in the second Test here on Sunday.

Tom Blundell, who scored a brilliant 121 on the fourth day to bring some smiles to Kiwi supporters, was hit on his thigh guard by a James Pattinson delivery when he was batting on 90.
