However, the one man who is responsible (to a large extent) for this splendid home-run in the longest format, is skipper Kane Williamson. In the four innings, Williamson has played, he has scored 251, 129, 21 and 238, which includes two double centuries.

Williamson, who became the No 1 Test batsman in the world after the Mount Maunganui game, came into this home summer with 21 Test centuries under his belt. He smashed his 24th on Monday and is not far away from his contemporaries as Virat Kohli sits at 27 centuries, while Steve Smith has 26. The 30-year old, who recently became a father, averages a whopping 159 in New Zealand's current home season.

Twitter couldn't stay away from applauding the masterclass of the Kiwi skipper and praised his consistency comparing with Australia's Sir Don Bradman. Twitter also poked fun at the aformentioned Kohli and Smith, and said they must be fearing seeing Williamson score mountains of runs and closing-in on their records.

Williamson, who has been termed one of the nicest guys in the cricket world, has become a run-scoring machine not just in the Tests, but across formats after being ridiculed for being a claasic player, not made for T20Is.

Many users, also poked fun at Pakistan's hapless bowling, who gave away 659 runs and took just six wickets in the innings. Led by former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer, some of the users came up with hilarious memes indicating that they are getting bored of waking up, tuning in seeing Williamson score runs, make centuries, double centuries for fun.

Here are some of the reactions:
