Cricket

A few families have contributed their fair share to cricket in New Zealand.

While the Barmy Army has long been synonymous with English cricket supporters, in recent years New Zealand cricket has discovered its own band of fervent followers.

New Zealand’s cricket grounds may not be as steeped in tradition as their English counterparts, but many have a story to tell.

Whether played in the backyard, or at the beach, watched on TV or listened to on the radio, cricket has always been the quintessential ingredient for a good old fashioned kiwi summer.
