Auckland defended the modest total of 159 against Central Districts in the top of the table clash to win by 34 runs.

It was tough going for the Auckland batsmen with Sandee Hui was the best of the line up, hitting 34 while Tessa Hickson was next best with 22.  A late partnership between Hui and Georgia Guy carried them through to a defendable total.

Central bowler Sanika Rangnekar was outstanding taking four for 38 including two wickets in two balls.

Captain Esther Lanser got the reply off to a great start with 31 but the rest of the Central batsmen fell easily to hand Auckland a comfortable 34 run win.

Auckland’s Regina Lili’i was economical and accurate finishing with three for 11 with Guy and Komel Preet-Gill chipping in with two each.

Toss: Wellington won the toss and elected to field

The match between Northern Districts and Wellington went down to the wire with Wellington reaching the target win two balls to spare and one wicket in hand.

The Northern total of 168 was largely thanks to a classy 56 not out from Heidi Arndt.  Rhiana Vincent struck 29 but there was little else to celebrate for Northern.

Wellington bowler Hannah Bedford was at her destructive best, tearing trough the top order and finishing with four for 18.

A number of the Wellington batsmen got starts but no could stick around.  Jessica Bennett top scored with 35 and bowling star Bedford made an invaluable 29.

Hannah Beatson did her best to defend the modest total with three for 27 but it wasn’t enough to stop Wellington from recording a slender one wicket win.

Canterbury v Otago

Canterbury 249/6 (Hastings 74, Aburn 41, Fitzsimon 34; Osborn 2/29) beat Otago 206 (Crowley 78, Miller 30; Burns 2/14) by 43 runs.

Toss: Canterbury won the toss and elected to bat

A fluent half century from Otago batsmen Kylie Crowley couldn’t stop Canterbury from racking up their third win from four matches.

With wickets falling regularly Crowley continued to battle but ran out of partners and when she fell for 78 all hope was lost.

Wickets were shared by the Canterbury bowling attack who secured a 43 run win.

Earlier, the Canterbury batsman put on 249 in a well paced innings. Jessica Hastings crafted a superb 74 not out with Hayley Aburn making 41 and Sam Fitzsimon contributing 34.

Esther Lanser once again featured with the bat, contributing 34.
