A League Apart - The Best Cricketers Ever From Each Nation

Daniel Luca Vettori - New Zealand

New Zealand v South Africa: Semi Final - 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup

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. Since his debut, Vettori has gone from strength to strength, establishing himself as one of the greatest left arm orthodox bowlers in the world, and arguably New Zealand's finest ever created.

Throughout his career, Vettori has been the sole wicket-taker for New Zealand in Tests and luckily for them he has the ability to bowl long spells and possesses patience in abundance. He possesses a number of variations combined with a beautiful loop, he's often left batsmen bamboozled.

Vettori has gone on to scalp 705 wickets during the course of his playing days. He's no mug with the bat either, having gone on to make 6989 runs.
