Hello and welcome to live coverage of the warm-up match between New Zealand XI and Ireland. The news that we have for you is not so bright as it's been raining at Hamilton from sometime now. We will be back as soon as we have something positive to report.
3:15 pm: Sadly, the persistent rain wiped away any chance of play and match has been called off. Good bye & good night from Chandan Duorah, cheers!
