Kane Williamson overtakes Ross Taylor as New Zealand’s all-time highest Test run scorer

0

The
former
captain
headed
into
day
four
of
the
second
Test
in
Wellington
needing
just
four
runs
to
overtake
his
former
team-mate’s
haul
of
7,683.

Williamson
achieved
the
feat
with
his
first
runs
of
the
day,
clipping
James
Anderson
through
mid-wicket
boundary
in
the
opening
over
to
reach
7,684.

The
top-order
batter,
widely
considered
one
of
the
finest
players
of
his
generation,
has
long
been
expected
to
surpass
the
figure,
and
does
so
in
his
92nd
Test
match.

He
guided
the
Black
Caps
to
success
in
the
inaugural
World
Test
Championship
in
2021,
beating
India
in
the
final
after
back-to-back
silver-medal
finishes
in
the
World
Cup.

Mr
Dependable

Between
2016
and
2022,
he
captained
New
Zealand
in
40
Tests,
before
relinquishing
his
red-ball
command
last
December
to
Tim
Southee,
though
he
remains
white-ball
skipper.

New
Zealand
are
looking
to
bounce
back
from
a
first
Test
loss
to
England,
after
a
267-run
defeat
at
Mount
Maunganui.

They
struggled
in
their
first
innings,
mustering
just
209
in
response
to
the
tourists’ total
of
435,
with
Ben
Stokes
forcing
them
to
follow
on.
