The tourists secure a comfortable victory and a 1-0 series lead heading to Wellington on the fourth afternoon at Mount Maunganui
Bay Oval (fourth day of five): England 325-9d & 374, New Zealand 306 & 126 - England won by 267 runs
England made short work of New Zealand to wrap up victory on day four of the first Test at Bay Oval.
James Anderson (4 for 18) and Jack Leach (1 for 25) took the five wickets required to give the tourists a 1-0 series leading heading to Wellington's Basin Reserve.
Daryl Mitchell (57 not out) brought up his sixth Test fifty but he lacked support.
The Kiwis' winless run in Tests is extended to seven while defeat will also prolong their wait for a series victory, dating back to June 2021.
Tim Southee, who succeeded Kane Williamson as captain at the start of the year, also remains winless at skipper.
For England, victory sets a number of records.

It is their first in a day-night Test, in New Zealand since 2008 and the 10th in 11 under the Brendon McCulum-Ben Stokes leadership axis.
Only Australia's Lindsay Hassett can rival Stokes' return of 10 wins from his opening 12 Tests at the helm. It also represents the sixth victory in a row for the first time since 2010.
Any hope the Black Caps could delay the inevitable, not least stage an unlikely surge for their record victory target of 394, on the penultimate day of the Test were handed a decisive blow just minutes into the start of play.

Anderson had watched Stuart Broad establish the seam pair as the most successful duo in men's Test history with a string of third-evening wickets.
And the Lancastrian opened his account for the innings in successive deliveries, pinning Scott Kuggeleijn (2) lbw before having Southee caught at the wicket first ball.
Daryl Mitchell went over the top for six before Neil Wagner (9) struck one glorious boundary prior to succumbing to leave England within touching distance.
The Kiwis avoided being bowled out for fewer than 100 for the 10th time in home Tests but a harrowing defeat was just around the corner. Mitchell and Tickner (8) made England wait nearly an hour, but Anderson confirmed the result with his fourth of the morning, bowling the tailender with aplomb.
