Never judge a book by its cover.
Black Caps legend Sir Richard Hadlee's appearance on last night's Seven Sharp has raised eyebrows after viewers noticed a risque title perched on his bookshelf.
The cricketing icon was on television discussing the recent Black Caps' success, heaping praise on the team, labelling them "the complete package".
But as he shared his thoughts, one eagle-eyed viewer spotted that one of the books on Hadlee's shelf was not like the others.
Amid cricketing almanacs and biographies - and multiple titles on the man himself - stood a copy of raunchy bestseller Fifty Shades of Grey.
