    The Black Caps are trying to wrap up the first cricket test against the West Indies, on day four in Christchurch

    The Black Caps are trying to wrap up the first cricket test against the West Indies, on day four in Christchurch


    They needed six more wickets, a short time ago, after the Windies reached tea on 107 for four, chasing 531.



    Ahead of the fifth edition of the Kiwi A-League football derby between Auckland FC and the Wellington Phoenix, Black Knights goalkeeper Michael Woud says it's the biggest domestic game in New Zealand.

    Auckland have dominated the derby so far, winning all four meetings.



    The inaugural Rugby's Greatest Rivalry series next year is set to feature a double-header for the third test in Johannesburg on September 5, when the Springboks and the All Blacks will be joined by the South African women playing the Black Ferns.
