Introduction
to the Tour
We are pleased to advise that the fixtures have been announced for
the England Cricket Tour to New Zealand in early 2008.
This should be a very entertaining series with plenty at stake for
both teams. A packed schedule, taking place over 2 months, will see
the England team touring the whole country.
England will play three Tests, five one-day internationals and two
Twenty20 matches on their two-month tour of New Zealand.
Cricket enthusiasts will not want to miss out on travelling to New
Zealand to see England play.
