Jacques Kallis and Stephen Fleming could mark their 100th Tests by leading South Africa and New Zealand in the series-opener tomorrow. The match will also be the 100th for South African bowler Shaun Pollock
8220;When you play in your first Test, you never really think about playing in a hundred,8221; Kallis said. 8220;But it is an honour and a privilege, and it will be something to remember in the future. But I won8217;t be expecting any favours from the opposition because it8217;s my 100th Test.8221;
8220;I8217;ve played in an awesome side, and every time we8217;ve gone out, we8217;ve believed we had the ability to beat any team. I8217;ve played with some fine cricketers in the South African team, and I8217;ve played against some fine cricketers.
Fleming is New Zealand8217;s longest-serving and most successful captain, who made his Test debut in 1994 against India, and took over the captaincy in February 1997 in the third Test against England. He owns New Zealand records for the most Tests, most Test runs, and most wins as captain with 27 in 75 Tests in charge. Agencies
