"He put in the hard yards": BJ Watling reflects on Southee's career

An end of an era for the Black Caps, with Tim Southee set to play in his 107th and final test.  

Southee is set to suit up against England for the dead rubber in Hamilton starting at 11am.  

Former test and Northern Districts teammate B.J. Watling says Southee will go down as one of the Black Caps' greats. 

He told Jason Pine that he was someone that always had the team at the front of his mind.  

“His work ethic, he’s someone that dragged you along as well.”
