Learning about cricket in 24 hours

From Afternoons, 1:26 pm on 17 July 2019

Cricket, it's fair to say, isn't everyone's cup of tea. That was certainly the case for RNZ Te Manu Korihi reporter Te Aniwa Hurihanganui.

But when New Zealand made the final of the World Cup, Te Aniwa decided she wanted to be part of the conversation - so she learned all she could about the sport in 24 hours.

We catch up with her to chat about the experience, and what she thinks now of the sport that mad dogs and the Englishmen play in the midday sun
