Hamilton, New Zealand: Jamie How fell agonisingly short of his first century while New Zealand threw away a golden opportunity to seize control of the first Test against England after the opening day on Wednesday.
How, whose previous highest Test score was 37, was dismissed for 92 in the final session at Seddon Park when he was well caught by Paul Collingwood off Monty Panesar before New Zealand ended the day on 282 for six.
Ross Taylor will resume today on 54 with captain Daniel Vettori on four. Wicketkeeper Brendon McCullum had produced a dashing 51 off 55 balls before he was dismissed in the penultimate over of the day.
