#4 New Zealand - Brendon McCullum -185 (272) vs Bangladesh, Hamilton

New Zealand v Bangladesh - First Test: Day 2

In 2010, Bangladesh toured New Zealand and took part in a one-off Test. Shakib Al Hasan won the toss and invited the home side to bat first and they had a shaky start, losing their first 5 wickets with just 158 on the board. Martin Guptill (189) and Brendon McCullum then destroyed the Bangladeshi bowling attack as the duo added 339 for the sixth wicket before Rubel Hossain uprooted the stumps of Brendon McCullum.

The Kiwi wicket-keeper had made sure that he did his job before departing, as his knock of 185 comprised 17 fours and 3 sixes. New Zealand declared the first innings at 553-7 with major contributions from the two centurions. The visitors could not match the level of the higher-ranked New Zealand team as they lost the match by 121 runs.
