Due to the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the series was the first time the New Zealand side competed in an international match since July 2021 at the Olympic Games.[3] [4] The series was scheduled to be held alongside the women's event, however it was postponed due to COVID related issues.[5]
