New Zealand captain Kane Williamson has marked another century of testing at Seddon Park.

A fifth ton of testing at Seddon Park has seen Black Caps captain Kane Williamson increase his lead as New Zealand’s most prolific creator of the century.

Williamson achieved his twenty-second century test cricket on Friday morning in Hamilton on the second day of the first test against the West Indies.

Resuming his innings in 97, the 30-year-old regained his century with a signature back foot boundary shot through the point after 15 minutes of play to move to 102.
