Key batsman
David Warner
The left-handed maestro is at the top of his game after an indifferent Ashes series, and now has his fourth overall career century against New Zealand - only Allan Border has more. Warner's strokes, particularly his driving, were impeccable.
Key bowler
Tim Southee
Had his moments but off-spinner Mark Craig, brought on after lunch, enjoyed the added bounce and provided more trouble than he did in Brisbane. Craig should have had Usman Khawaja out twice in the
afternoon session - but one edge was dropped by gloveman BJ Watling, and another was wrongly adjudged not out but could not be overturned as the Caps had run out of reviews, having wasted their earlier two.

The moment
Brendon McCullum's incorrect call at the toss of the coin didn't help but it would have to be the second over of the morning - and the first of Tim Boult's day. The Caps needed their spearhead to deliver - instead David Warner thumped boundaries off his first two balls, and 12 came from the over. A nightmare Brisbane replay was well underway.
