Warwickshire's Jacob Bethell made an impressive start to his Test career hitting an unbeaten 50 off just 37-balls to guide England to victory in Christchurch.
On debut, the 21-year-old struck eight fours and a six in his eye-catching knock on the fourth day as England cruised to an eight-wicket win in the opening match of the series in New Zealand.
The second Test begins in Wellington on Thursday night UK time (10pm GMT).
