    Former New Zealand and Canterbury cricketer Brian Hastings has died aged 84

    Former New Zealand and Canterbury cricketer Brian Hastings has died aged 84


    He played 31 tests and 11 one-day internationals between 1969 and 1976.

    Hastings formed a 115-run fourth-wicket partnership with Glenn Turner in New Zealand's first test victory over Australia at Christchurch in 1974.

    He was presented with the match ball at a 50-year reunion in September at Hagley Oval.

    Hasting was also involved in the highest test 10th wicket stand of 151 runs with Richard Collinge against Pakistan at Auckland in 1973 - that lasted 40 years.
