Australia vs New Zealand Cricket Live: 2nd Test - Day 1 from Hagley Oval, Christchurch

Maiden over from Henry and that's it - play is over for the day.

It's been a fairly even competition from these teams, New Zealand made a respectable 370 and Australia 57/1.

But let's face it, today was all about the New Zealand captain.

In his last international Test Brendon McCullum wielded his bat like a weapon, supremely confident and aggressive as he brought up the fastest ever test century. That's 100 off 54 balls, overtaking even West Indies great Viv Richards.

That's all from me today, but I'll be back to bring you all the action tomorrow.

Henry's having another bowl with Khawaja on strike. It'd be great to see a few more runs before it's all over for the day.

Maiden over from Anderson and the Australians are 57/1 after 19 overs.

There's a nice easy four from a Khawaja square-drive, he's all class with those shots.

And another four, this time a cover-drive.

The Australian is biding his time and hitting well.

Those both off Henry balls.

Southee with the ball and runs have dried up a little.

Khawaja made one and a big appeal from New Zealand for LBW with Burns on strike - no love from the umpire.

Australia 46/1 after 16 overs.

Khawaja runs a three and he reaches the end of the 12th over with seven from 10 balls.

Remember in the first Test he made his fourth ever century? The Australians will be hoping he can find that form again.

Burns hits a nice four there so the over didn't go to waste.

They went 0 0 0 0 4 0 off a Henry over.
