Veteran New Zealand batsman Ross Taylor on Friday made history when he took the field against India in the opening Test here as he became the first player to play 100 matches in all three formats of the game.
The ongoing match at the Basin Reserve is his 100th Test.
Taylor was presented his 100th Test cap by former New Zealand wicketkeeper Ian Smith before the match.
"Really excited about the occasion. It's very nice for the team and the family to experience something they might never do again," he said.
"I'll need some help drinking (the hundred bottles of wine), but they can be stored for a while. It keeps the tradition from Fleming, Brendon (McCullum) and Dan (Daniel Vettori) who all played over a hundred Tests each and hopefully we can celebrate this one with a win."
In T20 Internationals, he has scored 1909 runs and former captain Brendon McCullum (2140 from 71 matches) and opener Martin Guptill (2536 from 88 matches)
