Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
Nathan, bats lower down the order and has played some vital knocks for his country. It is his accurate off-spin bowling and his sharp fielding though, that has made him a force to reckon with in the shorter forms of the game. Bowling in the middle overs and maintaining a tight line, Nathan, often puts the opposition camp under pressure.
He has shown glimpses of the prowess he wields with the bat as well. During the series against Pakistan just before the 2011 World Cup, he blasted his first ODI fifty to guide New Zealand to a win in the fourth match. The acceleration towards the end showed that Nathan was a decent batsman. However, it was his blazing innings of 65 not out in the final game of the ODI series that showed Nathan could be destructive, when the situation demanded. He carted the Pakistani bowlers in the slog overs and helped NZ to a consolation victory after they had lost the series.
In T20s, too, he has essayed a few useful knocks. His unbeaten 16 in the first match of the World T20 2010 helped New Zealand sneak past Sri Lanka, in a low-scoring thriller. He has had more success with the ball in T20Is, having picked up 26 wickets in 25 matches at an average of 18, with a commendable economy rate of 6.32. Nathan's economic returns in T20s have made him a vital cog in New Zealand's T20 team.
Owing to his consistent performances, Nathan McCullum has been an important part of the New Zealand limited overs squad. He was also selected for the World T20 2014 that took place in Bangladesh. He had a fine run with the ball, but was poor with the bat. Because of his all-round abilities, the selectors picked him up for the 2015 World Cup.
Nathan, might be overshadowed by his younger brother, but he has gone on with his job in a quiet manner. His all-round contributions make him a vital member in a New Zealand team, that is looking to improve all the time. He has also played for Sunrisers Hyderabad and Pune Warriors in the IPL.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
The older brother of Brendon McCullum, Nathan McCullum is an offspinning allrounder from Otago who joined his sibling at the ICC World Twenty20 in South Africa. After missing out on the final Champions Trophy squad, McCullum was promoted to the senior ranks following a strong Emerging Players Tournament in Australia, which included a haul of 4 for 41 against the Academy. He had little to cheer about in his only World Twenty20 outing, as he was run out for 1 and was not asked to bowl. McCullum's first-class debut arrived in 1999-2000 and since then he has added six half-centuries and one five-wicket haul. In the 2006-07 State Championship he collected 240 runs at 26.66 with a high of 61 and 14 wickets at 56.42. His economy rate was a strong 3.88 per over in the one-day competition and he added nine wickets in 11 games.
