New Zealand Openers Break Test Match Records Against West Indies
Third Test, Mount Maunganui (the fourth day of five)
- New Zealand 575 for 8 declared: Conway 227, Latham 137 and 306-2 dec: Latham 101, Conway 100
- West Indies 420: Hodge 123 and 43-0
New Zealand's Tom Latham and Devon Conway made history by becoming the initial opening pair in Test match history to register tons in each innings of a match, leaving the West Indies a daunting 462-run target for victory.
Latham scored 137 and 101 in this third and final Test, while Conway added to his mammoth 227 in the first innings with a precise 100 in the second.
The duo had constructed a massive 323-run stand in the first innings, totaling 515 runs overall—a new record for the most runs by an opening pair in a single Test match.
Furthermore, Conway joined an elite club in Test history to achieve a double century and a hundred in the same match.
He emulated legends like Greg Chappell, Sunil Gavaskar, Graham Gooch, Brian Lara, and Kumar Sangakkara in securing this remarkable feat.
Game Situation
Earlier on day four, the Windies were dismissed for 420, trailing by 155 runs, before Latham and Conway again took to the crease.
Along with contributions from Kane Williamson (40) and Rachin Ravindra (46), the New Zealand top order propelled their side to 306-2 before a declaration, setting the visitors a formidable target of 462 to win and level the series.
At the stumps, West Indies openers had reached 43-0, with John Campbell showing great patience to score two runs from 50 balls, while Brandon King made 37.
