New Zealand v
The British Isles
The First Test Match from Lancaster Park, Christchurch
A recording of the whole match, played in the early hours, by satellite from New Zealand. THE LIONS have won only one of the six tests on this ground, but the tour management of Willie-John McBride and Jim Telfer has developed a team that could provide victory in this first of the four test matches.
