    Christmas Day for the Black Caps this year consists of training, photos, lunch and of course presents

    Christmas Day for the Black Caps this year consists of training, photos, lunch and of course presents


    They're preparing for tomorrow's Boxing Day Test at Melbourne Cricket Ground - their first Boxing Day test at the Ground in 32 years.

    But Captain Kate Williamson says it's great to be able to have lunch and open presents with their families too.

    He says we was spoilt with a tshirt with his dog on it and some cologne.

    The opening day of the traditional fixture is almost sold out, with more than 16-thousand Kiwis also making the trip across the ditch to support their fellow Kiwis.
