Career
Having been injured in Australia in February 2007, Mills was forced to withdraw from the 2007 World Cup. After an operation on a patella tendon and a winter of rehabilitation, Mills worked his way back to fitness to take part in New Zealands tour of South Africa in November/December 2007.
Called into the Test side, Mills was forced to withdraw from the second and final Test due to a stomach bug. Coming fresh into the three match one day series, Mills was the pick of the New Zealand bowlers in all three matches taking career best figures of 5 for 25 in the series opener. This would mark his only successful series as a Test Match bowler.
Despite New Zealand losing the series 2–1, Mills was named Man of the Series, a fitting accolade for three effective displays of opening bowling.
