'Coronavirus-free New Zealand could become neutral Test venue'

The Hindu  

With New Zealand declaring itself virus-free, the country could emerge as a sought-after neutral venue for Test matches, reckons Heath Mills, chief executive of the Players Association. “That’s a definite possibility.” “I know New Zealand Cricket have been in contact with the ECB and others about the potential for that to happen this summer,” Mills was quoted as saying by I Newspaper. Mills expects New Zealand Cricket to seriously consider the prospect of hosting neutral Tests. In April, the England and Wales Cricket Board chief executive Tom Harrison had confirmed offers from New Zealand and Australia, also one of the least affected countries, to host county cricket.
