  • West Indies openers Brandon King (55*) and John Campbell (45*) led a strong reply, reaching 110/0 at stumps on Day 2.
  • New Zealand declared their first innings at a formidable 575/8, anchored by Devon Conway's magnificent 227.
  • King and Campbell comfortably negotiated 23 overs, trailing New Zealand by 465 runs at Mount Maunganui.
  • Rachin Ravindra (72*) and Ajaz Patel (30*) provided late impetus for New Zealand's massive total.
