Hamilton: New Zealand and Bangladesh players had to call for insect sprays as they desperately swatted away swarms of black bugs which descended on Hamilton’s Seddon Park in their World Cup clash Friday.

“Hearing reports the Pharmacy closest to the ground is sold out of bug spray take care out there gang,” tweeted @BLACKCAPS, the official Twitter feed of the New Zealand team. ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: Complete Coverage
