Kane Williamson. It was his 30th test century from 97 matches.

In achieving this mark (he is New Zealand's leading test batsman), Williamson edged ahead of the 29 test centuries scored by Australian great, Sir Donald Bradman.

Currently second in New Zealand's all-time list of test century scorers is Ross Taylor with 19.

February 6 is Waitangi Day, New Zealand's national day here in New Zealand.

This afternoon, Kane Williamson scored 109 in New Zealand's second innings. That's his 31st test century.

He also became just the fifth New Zealand batsman to score centuries in both innings of a test match.

And another New Zealand batsman, Rachin Ravindra, scored his debut test hundred. He went on to make a double ton and was finally out for 240 from 366 balls.
