International career
On his New Zealand debut, it took McIntosh 38 deliveries to score his first runs in Tests.[1] However, he impressed in his second Test, scoring a patient 136, his maiden Test century, to help New Zealand secure a draw against the West Indies.
The 2010 tour of India started disastrously for McIntosh, when he scored a pair in the first Test at Ahmedabad. However, he bounced back and scored a patient 102 in the next Test at Hyderabad, becoming only the 11th batsman in the game to score a century after getting a pair in the previous match.
