Vettori pays tribute to his fast bowlers for victory

Hamilton, Mar 10 (UNI) Black caps skipper Daniel Vettori paid tribute to his fast bowlers Kyle Mills and Chris Martin for setting up the most satisfying win of his career.

New Zealand yesterday beat England by 189 runs in the first test played here.

''Kyle Mills and Chris Martin set up the victory. They just bowled superbly. I've got to keep reiterating just how well they bowled to set things up for us here,'' Vettori said.

Mills ripped out England's first four batsmen in a devastating spell on the final day to take four wickets for two runs in 25 balls.

Martin then enjoyed a three-scalp blitz in nine balls.
