Left-arm spinner Daniel Vettori took five for 92 to help New Zealand complete a 328-run victory over English county Leicestershire on the last day of a four-day tour match on Monday.
Set a target of 561, Leicestershire were bowled out for 232 in 79.3 overs, the only genuine resistance coming from former England Test batsman Darren Maddy with 87.
Vettori removed the last four batsmen as the tourists wrapped up the first victory of their England tour.
New Zealand lost to England by seven wickets in the first Test of three at Lord's a week ago.
The sides meet at Headingley for the second Test, which starts on Thursday.
