The New Zealand A cricket team is a cricket team representing New Zealand, and is the "second tier" of international New Zealand cricket below the full New Zealand cricket team. The team played its first game, against an England XI, in 1996/97.

New Zealand A have played fewer games in their history than most other A sides, partly because of a three-year gap between 2000/01 and 2003/04 in which they played no matches at all.

BJ Watling is the current captain of the team for England and Scotland tour which starts in August 2014.

In April 2014, Bob Carter who was New Zealand's assistant coach left his role with the national side to take up the position of high-performance coach. Carter is responsible for developing the U-19s and A team sides.

This is a list of active players who have played for New Zealand A team who went to England and Scotland in August 2014.
