Dalai Lama meets team New Zealand ahead of World Cup match
After Sunday’s match against India, the New Zealand cricket team and their families on Tuesday met His Holiness the Dalai Lama at his residence in McLeodganj
New Zealand speedster Trent Boult on Monday gave the training session a miss on the second day of the camp at Bay Oval.
Boult was not feeling well and stayed away as a precaution. Senior Kiwi cricketer Ross Taylor stated that he is hopeful that the pacer would be fit to attend the third day of the camp scheduled to end on 24 July.
“I think he’s just tired from his eight overs bowling at us yesterday. Obviously, with what’s going around, you’ve got to be a bit smart around things like that. Hopefully, he’s fine and raring to go tomorrow,” ESPNcricinfo quoted Taylor as saying.
