    A once in a lifetime chance

    A once in a lifetime chance


    That's how the Black Caps are viewing the Boxing Day test against Australia in Melbourne.

    It's been 32 long years since Australian tailenders Mike Whitney and Craig McDermott clung on for a draw in the last match between the sides that started on December 26th.

    Black Caps batting coach Peter Fulton says this type of match may never happen again for most players.



    First ball's at 12:30pm.
