Demoralised by Cam Green's mighty unbeaten 174, New Zealand have fallen into an all-too-familiar abyss against Australia in the first Test.
The Black Caps are again at the bottom of the well against their arch rivals, trailing by 217 runs with only a sliver of light to cling to.
That came in the form of two late wickets in the last half hour at Wellington's Basin Reserve on day two, leaving Australia 2-13 in their second innings.
