From Checkpoint, 4:26 pm on 4 April 2024

A cricket fan has been left gobsmacked after finding recycling efforts at Christchurch's Hagley Oval - were quite literally rubbish.

Sue Craig-Stewart who has been recycling for 40 years was watching the Black Caps take on Australia at Hagley Oval last month.

She was delighted to see the yellow bins out - but decided to do some investigating into where all the plastic ended up and was shocked by what she found.

Sue Craig-Stewart speaks to Susana Leiataua.
