New Zealand opener Mark Richardson restored some battered Kiwi pride by outpacing fellow 'slow-coach' Darren Lehmann in a 110-metre post-match race for charity.

They wore aerodynamic lycra body-suits - Richardson's in the beige and brown of NZ's 1980s one-day uniforms and Lehmann's in green and gold.

Richardson proved quicker than his nickname Rig, as in rigor mortis, and held a clear lead by the halfway hurdle, a keg of beer.

"Once I got to the keg and got over that I was pretty happy," he said.

"I thought at that stage he (Lehmann) might actually stop and sit down and have a drink from the keg but he kept running," Richard-son said.

It was his only personal success of the tour after failing with the bat with innings of 19, four, nine and 16 against Australia.

"On a personal low note, the only thing I'll be remembered for in Aust-ralia is stupidity," he joked.

Prize money went to Richardson's charity of choice, Intellectually Handicapped Children (IHC) and to Lehmann's, the Shane Warne Foundation.
