The Baywide Cup may be out of reach but Central captain Peter Wood said his team are still upbeat about the season.
With two rounds left in the Baywide Cricket Cup's first-past-the-post competition and no chance of Central or Bay of Plenty Indians securing the trophy, both captains remain confident they have the players to have a decent crack this year.
Wood has been in stellar form with the bat so far this season despite his side not getting the results on the board.
"We have a real good team environment, a few of the boys have been with the team for a while now and we sort of know each others' skills and what they bring to the team. It's been a little frustrating we haven't gotten the results we wanted, but we definitely have shown glimpses and I'm confident we can turn things around."
The side travel to Whakatane's Rex Morpeth Park tomorrow to take on East Bay United in what is sure to be a titanic battle. United, currently with 51 points, sit fourth on the table behind Mount Maunganui, Cadets and Greerton, with the two Rotorua teams taking up the two bottom places on the table (Central 42, Indians 39).
