New Zealand
From Cricipedia
New Zealand also known as the Black Caps, played their first Test in 1929-30 against England in Christchurch becoming the fifth Test nation. It took the team until 1955-56 to win a Test, against the West Indies at Eden Park in Auckland. They played their first One Day International in the 1972-73 season against Pakistan in Christchurch.
The current Test captain is Daniel Vettori. He replaced the Black Caps' most successful captain, Stephen Fleming who led New Zealand to 28 Test victories, more than twice as many as any other captain. Vettori lost his first match as captain by 358 runs, New Zealand's worst ever defeat by runs.
The New Zealand cricket team became known as the Black Caps in January 1998, after its sponsor at the time, Clear Communications, held a competition to choose a name for the team.
As of February 2010, the New Zealand team has played 356 Test matches, winning 67 (18.82%), losing 143 (40.16%) and drawing 146 (41.01%) of its games.[1]
