New Zealand batsman Kane Williamson has lavished praises on skipper Brendon McCullum for his blistering knock of 195 runs that led his team to eight-wicket win over Sri Lanka in Christchruch Test.

Williamson said that he certainly struggled in Christchurch when McCullum was whacking it to all parts, adding that he felt like a library in a theme park, Stuff.co.nz reported.

He further said that one need to stick around so he could keep playing with that freedom as McCullum could develop the game and pushes it forward in their favour.

New Zealand will play their second Test against Sri Lanka at the Basin Reserve in Wellington tomorrow.
