Wellington: Brendon McCullum, who has just come off another successful and lucrative Indian Premier League campaign, has revealed that to him test cricket is sacred and something people have to protect.

McCullum added that it's the toughest challenge as "you will fail more times than you succeed in test cricket, but when you do taste success, you know that you have earned it."

He noted that when one finishes playing, it's his test experiences and memories that he'll hold onto the longest.
