There were some squeaky bum moments for Black Cap supporters during the game against South Africa and the West Indies a few days later. But two contrasting centuries by Williamson saw the team home safely in the first game and set up a winning total in the next, supported by excellent bowling and one outstanding Trent Boult catch.
