BRYDON CARSE bowled England to a commanding victory in the first Test against New Zealand at the weekend, underlining his status as a rising star in Christchurch.
Carse caught the eye on unhelpful pitches in Pakistan in his debut series, but showcased the full extent of his match-winning abilities with a 10-wicket haul in Christchurch.
The Durham seamer followed up figures of four for 62 in the first innings with a destructive six for 42 to kill off Kiwi resistance on day four at the Hagley Oval.
