McCullum's 200, reached in 186 balls, was the fourth fastest by balls in Tests.The match was originally scheduled for 26-30 November but it was decided not to play on 27 November as a mark of respect for P.J.Hughes, who died that day. The match would have continued on 1 December had a fifth day been needed. 605 United Arab Emirates in 2014/15
