With his appearance in the second Test match at the Hagley Oval, Taylor equaled former skipper Daniel Vettori’s record of playing the most number of Test matches (112) for New Zealand.
On December 30 last year, Taylor had confirmed his retirement from international cricket at the end of the upcoming home season. After this Test series, he will play the ODI series against Australia and Netherlands.
New Zealand will tour Australia at the end of January and the final ODI of the series will be played on February 5. Taylor will then play his last series for the Blackcaps in March-April when they will host the Netherlands.
