(Reuters) -New Zealand coach Ian Foster has been reappointed through to the end of the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France after guiding the All Blacks to victory over Australia in the Bledisloe Cup.

The contract extension quashes media speculation over Foster's future in the wake of an underwhelming first season in charge in 2020, when the All Blacks managed three wins from six tests.
