New Zealand cricket team in England in 1969

On the tour as a whole, the New Zealanders played 18 first-class matches, including the Tests, and won four of them, with three defeats.

In the second innings John Edrich scored 115 and shared a century opening partnership with Geoffrey Boycott.

Apart from Turner, who carried his bat for a dour 43, New Zealand did not cope well with Derek Underwood's left-arm spin and his 7-32 gave England a comfortable victory.

Almost all of the third and fifth days were lost to the weather, so that New Zealand comfortably saved the game in spite of a big deficit on first innings.

The New Zealanders recorded victories over Scotland, the Minor Counties, Warwickshire and T. N. Pearce's XI.
