8:12 Insight Can the Black Caps inspire a cricketing revival?
The New Zealand cricket team's historic success at the World Cup marked the end of a long road back from the turmoil and disappointment of just two years ago. The nation rallied behind the Black Caps like never before, and although the team fell at the final hurdle, those both within and without the game have suggested the effects of the tournament could be enduring. With school participation numbers dropping every year, Max Towle examines whether the Black Caps' recent success can galvanise cricket, and what needs to be done to inspire the next generation to pick up a bat and ball. Produced by Philippa Tolley.
