Daniel Vettori is the star as we continue our look back at previous Sky Sports Cricket Masterclasses.
In this demo from 2017, the former New Zealand spinner explained how he liked to grip the ball tightly in his gather, stand tall in his delivery stride and tried to disguise his speeds and variations.
Vettori took 362 Test wickets - the first of which was Sky Sports' Nasser Hussain, who padded up to face a few deliveries from the left-arm spinner.

We also hear about Vettori's beginnings in the game, starting as a medium pacer as he looked to follow in the footsteps of his hero, the great Black Caps all-rounder, Richard Hadlee.
Daniel turned to spin aged 15 and never looked back, finishing his career with 705 wickets across all three international formats.
We also hear Vettori's thoughts on the white-ball game and how he tries to encourage and teach young spinners in his role as a T20 coach.
