    3rd Test: Conway, Latham Historic Stand Powers NZ To 334-1 Vs WI On Day 1

    By IANS News December 18, 2025 • 12:56 PM View: 173
    ICC World Test Championship: Devon Conway and Tom Latham delivered an opening-day record-breaking performance here at the Bay Oval on Thursday, carving up a struggling West Indies bowling attack as New Zealand closed Day 1 of the third Test on a formidable 334/1.

    Conway remained unbeaten on 178 at stumps, while captain Latham fell late in the day for 137, the pair having stitched together a monumental 323-run opening stand. In the process, the duo set a new record for the highest opening partnership in Tests ever since the inception of the ICC World Test Championship, surpassing the previous record held by India's Rohit Sharma and Mayank Agarwal.

    Rohit and Agarwal had previously held the record since they put on 317 for the opening wicket against South Africa in Visakhapatnam back in 2019.
