The New Zealand All Blacks will play a charity match against a Pacific Barbarians side in Tokyo on Nov. 3 at Tokyo's Chichibunomiya Rugby Stadium, the Japan Rugby Football Union announced Friday in Tokyo. Kickoff time will be 2 p.m.

This will be the All Blacks' first visit to Japan in 13 years. Later they will continue on to France and Italy for tests in Europe.

The Pacific Barbarians are expected to feature former All Blacks still involved in rugby in the Pacific region, including Graeme Bachop of Sanix in Japan.
