The New Zealand team touring for the two-Test series against host England, as well as World Test Championship (WTC) final against India next month, took a break from training to witness the final day of a county game between Hampshire and Leicestershire.

The New Zealand cricket board tweeted a picture of players witnessing the game at the ground where they will play WTC final from June 18-22. Prior to that, they will have another chance to study the ground and its pitch through an intra-squad warm-up game from May 26-28 between Team Southee and Team Latham.
