The next two weekend rounds of the Baywide Twenty20 competition will dust off the holiday cobwebs before the seven Baywide teams embark on the chase for the season's big prize of the Williams Cup.

With just three rounds of qualifying before the top two sides fight out the T20 championship final, the title race is wide open with New World Te Puke, Eves Realty Greerton, Carrus Mount Maunganui and Element IMF Cadets tied together with three wins after the opening four rounds.

Theoretically, Mount Maunganui are in the box seat being the only side of the top four contenders to have sat out the bye so far. TomorrowTe Puke and Greerton will sit out a game with Cadets drawing the bye in round seven next weekend.

Taking centre stage at Fergusson Park in the early afternoon action will be Greerton and Mount Maunganui. Both contenders have Baywide club cricket experience in spades. Mount skipper Dale Swan has played more than two hundred premier games for his club while Greerton's Bay of Plenty batsman Tom MacRury has the T20 competition's highest score of 91.

In other round- five encounters, Cooney Lees Morgan Tauranga Boys' College will meet Bayleys Central Indians with GM Painters Lake Taupo CC squaring off with Cadets.

Mount Maunganui and Cadets should produce a barn-burner in round six. There is no one in the Baywide T20 title race more experienced than Cadets captain Jono Boult with 47 Northern Knights T20 appearances, taking 43 wickets with best figures of 4/23.

Te Puke make their appearance in the late afternoon round of matches against Tauranga Boys'. Te Puke master-blaster Stephen Crossan leads the competition batting stakes with 177 runs, producing an outstanding strike rate of 212 (per one hundred balls).

Central Indians and Lake Taupo CC meet in round six with the winner grabbing their first win of the title race.
