Cricinfo has a 10.00pm start NZ time. With a scorecard/ media blackout on this tour to date Kiwi cricket fans may be left in...

    ***Official*** Under 19 World Cup 2018

    ***Official*** Under 19 World Cup 2018

    NZ U 19’s recent performances at Junior WC’s have been disappointing. At least this group reached the Q/F’s where inevitably they met a quality side. Today NZ looked out of their depth .Men against boys.

    ***Official*** Pakistan in New Zealand 2017/18

    Change is mooted I guess by those who actually watch NZ Domestic cricket matches and know there are quality batting alternatives in the shorter formats .
