I recall watching the last Test of the '99 series between England & New Zealand at the Oval. The conditions were perfect for bowling. Caddick struck Fleming on the chest with a very quick ball that reared off the pitch, causing the batter a lot of pain. A lot of players would've gone off but he soldiered on & made 66. Allowed New Zealand to make 236, England replied with 153...NZ in their second innings made 162...England were all out for 162, and New Zealand won their second series in England.

Great captain and deserves to average over 40 with the bat. I bet he makes some big runs against England this series.
