Team New Zealand's boss has confirmed they'll battle Britain's INEOS Britannia team in the next America's Cup.

The Kiwi squad has won a historic third cup in a row.

Grant Dalton told Mike Hosking they'll face the British side once again.

 “Yes, it is INEOS – or the British team – so we’ve accepted that challenge.”

On whether that event will be in New Zealand, Dalton says it could happen.

“It is not off the table, it has never been off the table. But if our main team can be kept together, and we believe that we can win, and we can put on a rival event at home – we're coming home.”
