The Black Caps reaching the Cricket World Cup final for the first shouldn't come as a surprise to New Zealand fans going on the records the current side have broken in recent times.
With so many special performances after the other it's easy to forget of the remarkable innings or victories in both the test and ODI arenas since Mike Hesson took over as coach.
Under Hesson New Zealand have played 56 ODIs winning 30 with 20 defeats, one tie and five no results. New Zealand have beaten every nation at least once since Hesson took over and the only team they have a losing record against is Bangladesh (1 win - 4 defeats).
