It is an honor to be associated with the national team: Peter Fulton

According to the New Zealand Cricket Board website, Fulton has said, "It is an honor to be associated with the national team and I would like to thank the players and staff because they made me feel good. The role has contributed to me trying to be a head coach and in terms of my aspirations to further my development in the game. "
