Women's cricket tourney
PA Palmerston North Canterbury won its ninth consecutive national women’s cricket title but was denied its fifth straight outright win by North Shore in the final round of matches at Palmerston North yesterday. Canterbury ended 65 runs short of its victory target of 211, though six of its batswomen reached double figures. Central Districts ran out of overs in its chase for 187 to
beat the hard-working Wellington side and the bottomplaced Southern Districts, which claimed its first draw against Auckland, was only 18 runs from victory when stumps were drawn. Canterbury finished the tournament with 75 points after picking up just three against Shore. North Shore was second on 53, followed by Central (52), Wellington (29), Auckland (18) and Southern (15).
