KEY POINTS:
New Zealand Cricket are warning Twenty20 fans to turn up early if they want to catch all the action.
Tonight's match will attract a bumper crowd with just under 25,000 tickets sold by midday, said commercial manager Peter Dwan.
"We've still got some capacity in the terraces and some in the Panasonic Stand. She's going to be an absolute cracker," Mr Dwan said.
But he said if 15,000 people turn up 20 minutes before the first over, then they will miss out on some of the action.
Gates open at 5.30pm and people need to get there early, Mr Dwan said.
Eden Park, with seats taken up by the sight screens in the terraces and the South Stand, has a capacity of about 30,000.
