    Quick bowler Jacob Duffy finally feels like he truly belongs as a Black Caps cricketer


    13 years after his first-class debut - and five years on from his maiden international call up - the 31-year-old will play his maiden test in New Zealand's second match of their series against Zimbabwe - starting in Bulawayo tonight.

    Having been part of test squads for several years - Duffy says he's learn a lot from the likes of Tim Southee and Matt Henry.
