WELLINGTON: A Super Rugby match between the Otago Highlanders and Canterbury Crusaders scheduled for Saturday has been cancelled after a mass shooting at two mosques in Christchurch on Friday killed 49 people.

"Yesterday's horrific attacks have left us all feeling stunned," Crusaders chief executive Colin Mainsbridge said."All other issues and considerations pale in significance. We will now regroup and make arrangements for the team to return home as soon as possible to be back in their community and with their families."

"But when we think about the massive loss of life and absolute devastation that has been wreaked on people in Christchurch, we feel this is the right decision."The third cricket test between New Zealand and Bangladesh, scheduled to begin in Christchurch on Saturday, was called off on Friday.
