KEY POINTS:
The All Blacks will play England at Twickenham in November, setting up the chance of another grand slam.
An agreement between the New Zealand Rugby Football Union (NZRU) and Rugby Football Union (RFU) was announced this morning.
IRB consent is required for the match, scheduled November 30 (NZT), and has been applied for.
The test will offer the All Blacks the opportunity to again attempt the "grand slam" against the home nations - achieved by beating England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales in one tour.
The England test will follow tests against Scotland on November 8, Ireland on November 15, and Wales on November 22.
The All Blacks achieved their first grand slam in 1978 and the 2005 team repeated the effort.
"This is an exciting addition to the All Blacks' northern hemisphere tour programme," NZRU chief executive Steve Tew said.
"Not only does it create the opportunity for the All Blacks to pursue a grand slam in 2008 against the Rugby World Cup runners-up, but it also provides another opportunity for the many All Blacks fans in the UK and Europe to see and support their team."
RFU chief executive Francis Baron said the test would provide England another opportunity to play a test match at the highest level.
"The All Blacks at Twickenham are always a fantastic spectacle for rugby fans and I'm sure England supporters will be looking forward to the 29 November date this year."
Before playing the All Blacks, England will face the Pacific Islands on November 8, Australia on November 15 and South Africa on November 22.
