Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ka taea e Martin Crowe te 'ora pai ki' te whiringa toa o te Ipu o te Ao o Niu Tireni ki Ahitereiria pea ko te tukinga whakamutunga e matakitaki ana ia. Ko Crowe, 52 tau te pakeke, he rangatira o mua o Black Caps, e mate ana i te mate lymphoma, he mate pukupuku o te pūnaha ārai mate. I whakaorangia ia i te timatanga i muri i tana kitenga i te mate i te tau 2012, engari i tuhia i runga i Twitter i te marama o Hepetema kua hipa: 'I muri i te tau whakamiharo o te kitenga whaiaro me te whakaora kei a au etahi atu mahi hei mahi. Kua hoki mai taku hoa me te rangatira mahi pakeke a Lymphoma ki te whakaako i ahau.' Ko te kaitakaro kirikiti o mua o Aotearoa a Martin Crowe e mate ana i te mate lymphoma, te mate pukupuku o te pūnaha ārai mate. E mea ana a Crowe ko te whiringa toa o te ao kirikiti i waenganui i Aotearoa me Ahitereiria pea te kēmu whakamutunga e kite ana ia. Ko te rangatira o Ahitereiria a Michael Clarke (maui) e whakaahua ana ki te rangatira o Aotearoa a Brendon McCullum.

I tuhia e Crowe i runga i te ESPN Cricinfo: 'I te Ratapu, i mua i te whare ki tonu i te Melbourne Cricket Ground kotahi, ko Ahitereiria me Niu Tireni ka whawhai ano. I tēnei wā ehara i te mea he tuakana, engari he hoa whawhai kaha, he whakataetae e whai tikanga nui ake ana mō tō tātou hītori roa tahi. 'He tuakana tātou, ā, ka noho tonu. I te Rātapu ka riri te teina ki te teina. Ko ahau tētahi o aua tuakana whakapehapeha, e miharo ana ahau ki te tūmanako. 'Kāore he pātai, koinei te mea nui rawa atu o taku oranga, ā, e whakaaro ana hoki au ki a Aotearoa. 'E kore pea e taea e taku oranga ohorere kei mua te tuku i te taonga o te maha atu o nga keemu hei matakitaki me te koa. Na koinei pea te take. Ko te whakamutunga, pea, a ka taea e ahau te ora hari ki taua. ' Ko te whakaeke a Brendon McCullum me te rangatira o te kapa kua arahi i a New Zealand ki te whakamutunga, i a Martin Guptill i tuhi ano i nga pukapuka rekoata o te Ipu o te Ao me tana 237 kaore i hinga ki a West Indies i te hauwhā whakamutunga, i te wa e kaha ana te whakaeke bowling. I whakaahuatia a Crowe e mahi ana mō Aotearoa i tētahi tukinga whakamātautau ki Ingarangi i Pepuere 1988. I whakamoemiti a Crowe ki ngā kaitākaro pērā ki a Martin...
