It’s Just Not Cricket

Former Zim­b­ab­wean crick­eter Henry Olonga will speak at a pub­lic meet­ing in Wel­ling­ton on Thursday.

Olonga, along with fel­low play­er Andy Flower, caused a stir at the 2003 Crick­et World Cup by wear­ing black arm­bands dur­ing all his matches.

Olonga fled his home­land shortly after­wards and now lives in Lon­don.

The Green Party has brought Olonga to New Zea­l­and for a week-long “It’s Just Not Crick­et” speak­ing tour about the Black Caps’ planned trip to Zim­b­ab­we next month.

All mem­bers of the pub­lic are wel­come to attend an open for­um with Mr Olonga at St Andrew’s On The Ter­race on Thursday even­ing at 7:30pm.
