More banners were on display at Eden Park last night, directed at the protest over Black Caps all-rounder Scott Kuggeleijn's return to the national side. In a statement to the Herald, New Zealand Cricket public affairs manager Richard Boock said that the national body wasn't behind the removal of the banners and questioned the veracity of the claims. "In fact, we supported patrons by ensuring they knew the areas where banners could be placed without impacting on the commercial signage."
