A national state of emergency won't stop the day-night cricket test between New Zealand and England going ahead at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui this afternoon.
The Black Caps have only played three pink-ball test matches - losing twice to Australia in the inaugural test in Adelaide in 2015 and again in Perth in 2019.
The only win was against England - an innnings and 49 run victory at Auckland's Eden Park in 2018.
Sports editor Stephen Hewson looks at how this test will unfold.
