New Zealand selectors delay naming first Test side
Lynn McConnell - 7 March 2002

New Zealand's Test team for the first National Bank Test with England will now not be named until 4.30pm tomorrow.

The team was originally to have been named at 10am.

However, the selectors were still waiting to hear the result of a fitness assessment of left-arm spinner Daniel Vettori and were reportedly also keen to see Canterbury fast bowler Chris Martin in action for Canterbury against England.

Medical reports had been received on Chris Cairns and Craig McMillan and they were positive news for the selectors a New Zealand Cricket spokesman said.
