    2nd Test, New Zealand vs England: Here're the records broken
  • Persistent rain played spoilsport on the final day as hosts New Zealand drew the second Test against England in Hamilton on Tuesday.

    With this win, the Kiwis sealed the series 1-0, following their victory in the opening Test, in Mount Maunganui.

    With splendid performances from England skipper Joe Root and Kiwi opener Tom Latham, we take a look at some of the records broken.

  • Root scored a sensational double ton on Monday and in the process, he became the first away Test captain to score a double hundred in New Zealand, going past Chris Gayle's 197.

    Overall, he is the fifth captain to do the same.

    It was his third career double hundred in the format, while it was also his first overseas.

    He is also the fourth English player to score a double ton in New Zealand, while the last Englishman to do the same was Graham Thorpe, who smashed an unbeaten 200 in Christchurch, in 2002.

  • Taylor's 7k

    In the process, he also scored his 7,000 runs in the format and became the second Kiwi to do so after Stephen Fleming, who scored 7,172.

    Trailing Taylor among current Kiwi batsmen is skipper Kane Williamson, who has so far scored 6,322.
