A half-century from opener Tom Latham (76) and a solid knock from skipper Kane Williamson (48) took New Zealand to an advantageous position at the end of the day
A whooping 1,675 runs were scored during the match. It is still 49-runs short of becoming the highest-scoring Test match ever, as the fourth Test between England and Australia in 1948 Ashes saw both teams scoring a combined total of 1,723 runs, a record which has not been unbeaten.
Bairstow achieved this feat during the second Test of the three-match series against New Zealand at Trent Bridge, where he smashed his ton in just 77 balls.
