**How ironic. They refused to visit Kenya for safety reasons and get beat up in Durbin, South Africa. **:hehe:
Kiwis in nightclub brawl
February 21, 2003 13:06 IST
New Zealand cricketers were involved in a brawl outside a South African nightclub, the New Zealand Press Associated reported on Friday.
All-rounder Chris Cairns was reportedly felled by a punch from behind, while other members of the team were confronted and jostled in an incident on Thursday night.
Armed security guards, employed to protect the team, intervened and bundled the players into cars which took them back to their Durban hotel.
Cairns suffered a cut mouth. The matter was not reported to police.
New Zealand beat South Africa in Johannesburg last week to jeopardise the home team’s chances of making the next stage of the World Cup. The New Zealanders went to Durban for a short break after forfeiting their match against Kenya because of security concerns.

ofcourse, me neither but this major incident wouldnt have happened in Kenya. Thats called fate and you cannot avoid it. Kiwis got a slap on thier face by SA night club criminals. But imagine what could have happened had some one hit htem with knifre or sumthing :D
