WEATHER had the major say at the Northern Districts T20 nine-a-side regional intermediate cricket finals in Cambridge.
Poverty Bay representatives Sonrise Christian School only got to play one game — a 151-run loss to Marian Catholic School on Sunday — due to rain.
Marian made 185 for one in their20 overs after Sonrise won the toss and opted to bat. Captain Jackson Hay survived a close leg before wicket appeal by Sonrise captain Johnathan Gray (0-22 off four overs) and went on to make 50 not out off 53 balls.
He shared a 152-run opening stand with Jackson Botherway, who made 88 off 60, including 15 boundaries, before being caught by Gray from the medium-pace bowling of Sidney Ratima (1-25 off 2).
In response, Sonrise were bowled out for 34 in 10.3 overs. Gray hit three boundaries in his 10-ball knock of 14 at No.3. Opener Harvey Reynolds’ seven runs was the next-best individual score.
