The Black Caps are hunting a pioneering test cricket feat this week - the pursuit of a maiden series victory against the Proteas from 17 attempts across 49 matches and 92 years

Rachin Ravindra tweaked three for 33 from 21 overs on the opening day of the second fixture in Hamilton.

South Africa were 220 for six at stumps.

Ravindra explains their approach to reaching a new frontier.



Proteas batter David Bedingham made 39 - he says each team opted for a selection gamble.



However, left-arm orthodox and captain Neil Brand still returned eight for 171 at Mt Maunganui.
