14 January 2008
The tourists were dismissed for 342 shortly before lunch after Tim Ambrose (102) became the first England wicketkeeper for 11 years to score an overseas Test century.
Anderson bowled opener Matthew Bell with a swinging delivery in his first over before also removing Jamie How as New Zealand battled to reach 11 for two.Warwickshire wicketkeeper Ambrose had to wait for his moment of glory while Paul Collingwood, who resumed on 48, batted out a maiden from Kyle Mills in the first over of the day and then Ambrose had two near escapes in the next over, also a maiden from Jacob Oram.
Collingwood reached his half-century in the next over, cutting Mills for his seventh boundary, and Ambrose reached his landmark four balls later with a streaky four off Oram to third man off the splice which just evaded the slips.
Ambrose fell in the next over when he edged Mills low to Ross Taylor at second slip for a superb 102.
New batsman Stuart Broad scored just one before falling in unlucky circumstances when he attempted to clip the ball off his legs only for it to hit his thigh pad and bounce on to the leg-stump.
Collingwood helped add another 30 with Ryan Sidebottom, but was given lbw for a determined 55 to the first ball after a drinks break from seamer Mark Gillespie.
England's innings was brought to a swift halt following Collingwood's demise with Gillespie claiming wickets with successive deliveries to remove Sidebottom for a useful 14 before Monty Panesar was caught behind down the leg-side.
Anderson struck with his fifth delivery, which pitched on middle stump and swung away to hit Bell's off-stump as he attempted to play on the on-side.
He struck again in the penultimate over before lunch, tempting How into pushing forward and edging straight to Andrew Strauss at first slip to give the tourists the upper hand at the interval.
