Hawke's Bay's men's and women's representative cricket sides both saw their weekend matches abandoned for rain, however, club cricket was still able to take place on Friday and Saturday.

Following the penultimate round of the premier men's Twenty20 Murray McKearney Memorial Cup there are four teams tied at the top of the standings on two wins and a loss.

Napier Old Boys' Marist handed Taradale their first loss of the season on Friday evening at Nelson Park to join them in that four-way tie.

Marist batsman Mathew Sinclair (86 runs) led the hosts to a total of 159/4 before they held Taradale to 145/7.

Central Hawke's Bay dominated a struggling Cornwall side at Cornwall Park for their second win of the competition.

The hosts were held to just 73 runs, with Central needing less than nine overs to surpass that total with eight wickets in hand.
