The iconic Cello Basin Reserve will be a fitting venue for the much-awaited start of Australia’s tour of New Zealand with the opening Test getting underway on March 29.
The BLACKCAPS haven’t beaten Australia in Test since 2001, but have won seven of their last ten Test matches in Wellington setting up a mouthwatering encounter between the current ICC World Test Champions and inaugural winners.
Easter will be a celebration of cricket in the capital when the WHITE FERNS face England in two T20s and an ODI on March 27, 29, and April 1.
Sophie Devine’s side promises to deliver the treats as the WHITE FERNS seek to recreate their Commonwealth Games bronze medal win, where they defeated England by eight wickets in Birmingham.

The New Zealand national cricket team, known as the Black Caps, made their Test debut in 1930 against England in Christchurch, becoming the fifth nation to play Test cricket. After waiting 26 years for their first Test win against the West Indies in 1956, they also played their first ODI in 1972–73 against Pakistan. New Zealand are the inaugural World Test Championship champions (2021) and have won the ICC Champions Trophy (2000). They have reached the Cricket World Cup final twice and the T20 World Cup final once.
