Former Black Cap Luke Woodcock opens up on cancer diagnosis

A former Black Cap is appealing for help to afford costly international treatment in a bid to save his life after being diagnosed with a brain tumour.

Luke Woodcock, who played seven times for New Zealand and is Wellington College Cricket Club’s director of cricket, was diagnosed with the life-changing illness at the start of the year.

He underwent neurosurgery in February but still needs chemotherapy and radiotherapy because not all of the tumour was removed.

Woodcock joined Matt Buck on Wellington's All Sport Breakfast.
