Why is england playing new zealand in rugby union on a sunday?

at twickenham on november 5th. is it to mark an occassion?

Answers:
It's normally to do with television right, they'll be showing a game on saturday and the england one on sunday, better than the usual sunday movie anyway. Have to say looking at the All Blacks squad and having watched them this year I think england are on for a right good thumping!! Hope so.
Just the usual november tests, they change every year, the respective RFUs probably negotiate them. I cant see England winning though, they are a shadow of the heros that won the 2003 world cup, come back Jonny please!
Thay are not playing on Sunday. Thay are playing on Saturday the 28th October 2006 at Christchurch. You can listen to the game on radio 5 at 8am.
PROBABLY BECAUSE OF TV SCHEDULING IM WITH YOU ON THIS ONE, I WAS AT LAST YEARS CALCUTTA CUP MATCH PLAYED ON A SATURDAY BRILLIANT FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE GREAT RESULT A FEW BEERS AFTER NO WORK THE FOLLOWING DAY.
It's just one of the November 'friendly' test to prepare England for the Six Nations and the All Blacks for the Tri-Nations.
