Round 1 of this year's Plunket Shield has been completed.
Otago suffered a loss to Wellington after leaving them a target of 47 runs in their 4th innings. This was after Malcom Nofal took 4-15 (and 3-15 in the 1st innings) and Devon Conway top scored with 96 in Wellington's first innings.
Auckland cleaned up defending champions Central Districts in a low scoring affair. Ultimately, CD were set a target of 231 to win and only managed 192 with Matt McEwan taking 8-90 in the match.
A bit more batting in the draw between Canterbury and Northern Districts- with centuries to Black Cap Henry Nicholls (103) and captain Cole McConchie (107) for Canterbury and then Tim Siefert (119) and Darryl Mitchell (170*) as well as 96 from Mitchell Santner
