The New Zealand Men’s team returned to action against South Africa for a two-match test series from 17th February to 1st March live at 03:30 a.m. IST and exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.

New Zealand hosted a two-match test series against Bangladesh to open 2022 and split the series 1-1. While they fell to a shock loss in the first test, the Kiwis bounced back by winning the second test with an innings in hand. South Africa are coming off a 3-0 ODI whitewash and a 2-1 test series win over India. Both teams are looking to further climb up the tally of the 2021-23 ICC World Test Championship.

New Zealand will be led by captain Tom Latham, who continues to serve as skipper in Kane Williamson’s absence, as he continues recovery from an elbow injury. Mercurial pacer Trent Boult will miss the first Test match. The team will also feature a pair of debutants in Blair Tickner and Cam Fletcher. The New Zealand Test team is ranked second in the world while South Africa is ranked fifth. South Africa is the only team that New Zealand have never beat in a test series. They've lost 13 out of 16 series against South Africa including the last six Test series.
