Maturity as a player and as a skipper has finally
brought reward for New Zealand's longest-serving - and most
successful - Test match captain, Stephen Fleming. A stint with
Middlesex in 2001 laid the foundations for a successful
re-evaluation of his batting methods where the inability to convert
half-centuries to centuries did no justice to his quality. But after
a breakout innings of 134 not out to steer New Zealand to a classy
World Cup victory over South Africa, along with another spell in
county cricket, with Yorkshire, Fleming confirmed his greater
batting consistency with a career-highest 274 not out against Sri
Lanka in the first Test of their 2003 series. He followed that with
an equally impressive 192 at Hamilton against Pakistan later that
year and was named New Zealand's cricketer of the year in 2004. The
date 26 October, 2004 will remain in Fleming's memory, as he gained
three New Zealand Test records in facing the Bangladesh attack at
Chittagong. Firstly, his 87th Test earned him the record for most
caps won by a New Zealander and, in striding to the crease for the
150th time, this was the greatest number of Test innings for New
Zealand. And, as he moved to 81, in an innings where he would strike
202, he surpassed Martin Crowe's record aggregate of 5444 runs in
Tests for New Zealand |
