On
November 5th, I went to watch the Black Caps play England at Saxton Oval and it
was heaps of fun. It was a twenty-twenty cricket international. It was the second twenty-twenty
in Nelson and had a crowd of almost 6000. Not quite a sell out. I walked around
town on Tuesday and met lots of players from both England and the Black Caps. They
were all pretty friendly. As a wind up, I asked the England players and England
fans if they knew that the Welsh, the Irish and the Scottish don't like the
English and they laughed. The Black Caps went on to win by a narrow margin of
15 runs. One of the real highlights was meeting Eoin Morgan and Johnny Bairstow.
