Daniel Vettori is supporting his captain in great fashion. He's out scored Fleming in a 109 run partnership with 56 n.o.

Fleming is 183 n.o. and looks assured of a double century.

Fleming made 192 before being trapped in front by Umar Gul.

Vettori has moved to 79 n.o.

Vettori is enjoying the luck of the brave as he continues to hit out.

He just slammed one past the bowler, in the air, for 4 then aimed a shot to leg and sliced it over covers for 2.

He's on 89 n.o. from only 122 balls.

Now on 96 and facing.

From Cricinfo: "136.1 Mohammad Sami to Vettori, FOUR, There it is! a magnificent cover drive for his first Test hundred"

8/502.

New Zealand totalled 563.

Vettori was 137 n.o. I wonder how long it's been since anyone scored a Test century batting at #9 ?

Shabbir took 5/117.

I think Pat "Howsthat?" Symcox did for the Yarpies a few years ago, and possibly Shaun pollock has too.

That was a great knock by Vettori and probably explains why he opened in one of the World Cup matches.

Vettoris driving was first class from the shots i saw. He even improvised very well by hitting a full toss from the spinner over the keepers head for four runs and hit another ball about a foot on off stump through the on side covers for four.
