Getting together with the side at 39, the pair added 181 runs and went past the previous record of 160 runs by Williamson and Ross Taylor against West Indies in 2019.
The duo kept the Kiwis in contention in their chase of the mammoth 398. The stand, however, came to an end when Williamson tried to flick Mohammed Shami but holed out at deep square leg.
The association fell short of breaking the New Zealand record for the third wicket between Williamson and Taylor worth 206 runs, scored against England in 2015.
