Daniel Vettori is keen to put his 100th Test celebrations behind him early on Saturday and switch his focus to beating Australia.
Vettori will become the second New Zealander to reach the milestone after Stephen Fleming — he will do it at his home ground here — but finishing the home summer on a high is the captain’s No 1 priority.
“It’s exciting but it’s almost got to the stage where I just want to get it out of the way,” Vettori said. “It’s a big Test for us, the last Test of the summer, and fortunately it’s my 100th and it’s in front of family and friends. But the bigger issue is about us trying to win and it’s going to take a monumental effort from where we were at the Basin to turn it around here.”
