Brendon McCullum is poised for a fifth Test century heading into the final day of New Zealand's first Test against Australia in Wellington after he and skipper Daniel Vettori inspired a much-needed fightback. Australia declared at 459 for five midway through the second day and then skittled the hosts for 157 and had them 187 for five after enforcing follow-on at the end of day three. A record sixth-wicket partnership of 126 between Vettori and McCullum,then an unbroken stand of 60 between McCullum and Daryl Tuffey helped Kiwis to 369 for six,a lead of 67 runs,when play was called off for bad light on fourth day. McCullum's unbeaten 94 included 11 boundaries and a six. The final session was delayed by bad weather and only two overs were possible.
