Kurtis Patterson says the desire to return to Test cricket burns bright, with a goal to take more responsibility with the bat behind his stellar one-day season.
The 32-year-old guided NSW to the 50-over domestic title with a man-of-the-match unbeaten half-century against Tasmania on a tricky Hobart pitch.
He finished the season with 565 runs from eight games at an average of 113, with three centuries.
