Daniel Vettori has been on the international scene so long it is sometimes hard to believe he has only recently crossed into his thirties. The youngest man to play Test cricket for New Zealand, at the age of 18, he is one of only eight players to have managed the double of 300 Test wickets and 3000 runs. With time on his side, he could one day creep up towards Handle’s 431 Test dismissals, but to do that Vettori would need to avoid the stress fractures in his back that troubled him earlier in his career. ICC world cup 2011 is starting soon so he has a great pressure to achieve this world cup. He said that “I put pressure on myself to lead from the front”. Daniel Vettori bringing intelligence to spin bowling he has triumphed in conditions unsuited to spinners, and brings a unique intelligence to the craft. His excellent leading give New Zealand team in a good position. Vettori will stand down from captaincy, and retire from One day Internationals and Twenty20 Internationals after the 2011 Cricket World Cup.
