The BLACKCAPS were treated to a visit from Rugby League superstars ahead of their double-header weekend at Eden Park on 3 and 4 March
The BLACKCAPS were visited by New Zealand Warriors Kevin Locke, Shaun Johnson, Krisnan Inu and James Maloney, who all tried to match the BLACKCAPS with batting and bowling.
Nuggety Australian five-eight James Maloney displayed the most promise, proving talented with both bat and ball and showing up some of his Kiwi team mates.
Krisnan Inu was the Twenty20 specialist in the group though, clearing the rope with a couple of clean strikes from the middle of the bat.
