Brendon McCullum

I am a New Zealand international cricketer and is the current captain in all three forms of the international game. I play for the Otago Volts at provincial level, I played for Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League, having also spent one year with Kochi Tuskers Kerala. I was a wicket-keeper until 2013, and is an aggressive batsman who opens inOne-day Internationals and is known for his fast scoring rate.

As of 7 May 2012, I simultaneously held the record for the highest individual total in a Twenty20 International (123 for New Zealand against Bangladesh) and the second-highest individual runs in a first-class equivalent Twenty20 match (158 not out for Kolkata Knight Riders against Bangalore Royal Challengers). I am also the leading career run scorer in Twenty20 International cricket. I am the first and so far only player to score two Twenty20 International centuries. On August 29, 2013, Aaron Finch scored 156 runs v. England, relegating McCullum to second (and fifth) on the all time list. McCullum is also involved in the Business of export of premium New Zealand products to India.
