The Hot Spring T20 Christchurch Black Clash

The Hot Spring T20 Christchurch Black Clash pits New Zealand’s biggest sporting stars against each other in a high-intensity, hugely fun T20 cricket match at Christchurch’s Hagley Oval on Friday January 25.

Stephen Fleming’s Team Cricket will be defending its honour against Sir Graham Henry’s Team Rugby, with a lifetime of bragging rights on the line for the victors.

Fleming has hand-picked T20 Master Blaster Brendon McCullum to lead the line-up for Team Cricket, while Sir Graham has called upon All Blacks captain Kieran Read - who played premier cricket for Karaka aged 15 - to lead the upstart Team Rugby’s charge.

Each team will be packed with international sporting superstars keen to show off their talents with bat and ball. The leather, willow and banter will be flying at Hagley Oval in this summer sizzler.
