New Zealand's first innings defeat at home since 1997

1997 The last time New Zealand lost a home Test by the margin of an innings. They had lost to England by an innings and 68 runs, also in Wellington, in February 1997.

0 Defeats for Australia under Steven Smith's captaincy in ten Tests. They have won six and drawn four. Since Smith has started leading Australia in Tests, his win-loss ratio is the best among all captains.

3 Innings wins for Australia in New Zealand. Their first two were an innings and 103 runs in Wellington in 1945-46 and an innings and 60 runs in Christchurch in 1992-93.

4-1 Australia's win-loss record at the Basin Reserve in New Zealand, in ten Tests. Their only defeat was by nine wickets in 1989-90. Their win-loss ratio of 4.0 here is their best at any venue outside Australia, where they have played 10 or more Tests.

6 Unbeaten Tests for New Zealand at the Basin Reserve, before this defeat. Their last defeat here was also against Australia, in 2009-10.

3 Man-of-the-Match awards for Adam Voges in Tests, which is the joint-most since his debut in June last year. Steven Smith also has three. Stuart Broad and David Warner are the only others with two Man-of-the-Match awards in this period.

7/123 Nathan Lyon's match figures in this Test - third-best for an Australia spinner in New Zealand. Bill O'Reilly had taken 8 for 33, also in Wellington in 1945-46, and Shane Warne 7 for 66 in Christchurch in 1992-93. Incidentally, those are the only two previous Tests when Australia won by an innings in New Zealand.

6 Consecutive Tests in Wellington where the team that won the toss failed to win the match, before this game. This is only the second win by the team who won the toss in the last 11 Tests here, and both wins have been by Australia.

4 Instances of ten of New Zealand's XI scoring in double-digits in a Test innings. In their second-innings in Wellington, only Corey Anderson (0) had scored less than 10. Their previous such instance was in 2004-05 in Dhaka. The first two were both against England, in Auckland in 1977-78 and 1987-88.

208.67 Tim Southee's strike rate in his cameo of 48 off 23, from No. 10 in the second innings. His strike rate is the best for any player at No. 10 or lower scoring 40 or more. The previous best was also by him - 77* off 40 at 192.50 against England in Napier in 2007-08, his Test debut.

74 Runs by Mark Craig at No. 9 in this Test, without getting dismissed. He scored 41 in the first innings and 33 in the second innings, not out in both. His aggregate is the third-highest for any player who remained not out in both innings of a Test batting at No. 9 or lower. Craig has batted four times at No. 9, and he has remained not out on each occasion. He now averages 41.85 with the bat in Tests, which is third-highest for any player who has scored 500 or more runs batting at No. 8 or lower.
