Question
A cricket match begins at 10.30 am on January 10 in New Zealand (time zone of +12). Tell the time in Greenwich when it is shown live on TV there.
Answer in Brief
Solution
New Zealand lies in time zone +12, ie. it is 12 hours ahead of Greenwich, or Greenwich is 12 hours behind New Zealand. So when it is 10.30 am on January 10 in New Zealand, it is 10.30 pm on January 9. So the cricket match will be telecast from 10.30 pm on Jan 9 in Greenwich.
