U19 World Cup Switched to New Zealand

[maehara]

Missed this news from last month... Kenya had been due to host the U19 World Cup in February of next year, but have been stripped of the tourney after an ICC report concluded they had no chance of completing preparations in time. New Zealand have been named replacement hosts, and that could spell trouble for Zim, given the NZ government's reluctance to allow any sporting contact with Zimbabwe, even with the unity government in place. Something to keep an eye on, I reckon...

I think they might take into consideration that there is the unity government, and besides these are just youngsters not the senior team.

But knowing these New Zealanders, anything is possible. It would be stupid and "racist" to ban the team from travelling.
