🔴 LIVE: New Zealand A vs India A | 1st Four-Day Match - Day 1

New Zealand Cricket is offering the day's play, not just the decisive deliveries. Its opening-day broadcast of New Zealand A against India A takes viewers to Bert Sutcliffe Oval in Lincoln for the first four-day match.

The stream drew nearly 68,000 views in its first six hours, already well beyond the channel's usual first-day audience for long broadcasts. This is the A-team setting, where players can build experience and press their case for senior international selection, rather than a meeting of the two senior sides.

It is a change of pace from the compact India-New Zealand drama surrounding it on the channel: Glenn Phillips hitting sixes, Ravindra Jadeja facing a demanding chase, and a match going down to its final ball.

That shorter, sharper cricket is moving too. "The Super Over That Made The Hitman," posted earlier in the week, is drawing views much faster than usual. The channel has a substantial history with those tense finishes: its most-watched regular video is the Super Over replay from the third New Zealand-India T20 in 2020.
