Background
The New Zealand cricket team was scheduled to tour Scotland in June 2020 to play a One Day International (ODI) match and a Twenty20 International (T20I) match.[8][9] It would have been the first time since 2008 that the New Zealand team have toured Scotland.[10] New Zealand were also scheduled to tour Ireland in the same month to play three ODIs and three Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is).[11] Originally scheduled to be a one-off ODI match, Cricket Scotland announced the addition of the T20I match in December 2019.[12][13]
The COVID-19 pandemic put the tour in doubt.[14] In April 2020, David White, Chief Executive of New Zealand Cricket, said that the tour would be "most unlikely" to happen.[15] Later the same month, Gus Mackay, Chief Executive of Cricket Scotland, said that they were willing to host the matches behind closed doors if necessary.[16] However, the tour was postponed on 15 May 2020 as a result of the pandemic.[17][18]
