    A possible New Zealand debut on home turf is on the cards for hockey midfielder George Baker

    A possible New Zealand debut on home turf is on the cards for hockey midfielder George Baker


    He's been called up to the Black Sticks men's squad in the FIH Pro League, starting this afternoon in Christchurch.

    With most international hockey now played overseas, Baker knows home advantage is a rarity... but he's right up for it.



    The Black Sticks men play Great Britain at 4.30pm - the women play Great Britain tomorrrow at the same time.
