The New Zealand national cricket team toured Pakistan in October and November 1955 and played a three-match Test series against the Pakistan national cricket team. It was the first Test series between the two teams.[1] Pakistan won the Test series 2–0. New Zealand were captained by Harry Cave and Pakistan by Abdul Hafeez Kardar.[2]

After the Test series, the team went on to India, where they played a five-Test series.

New Zealand team

Every player played at least one Test in the series. Cave, Reid, MacGibbon, McGregor, Moir, Poore and Sutcliffe played all three Tests.

The team was managed by Henry Cooper, who was at the time headmaster of Auckland Grammar School, and had previously played three first-class matches for Auckland.[3]
