39 Runs Required. 3 Wickets in Hand. Day 4. Rain. With the weather looking likely to clear this afternoon, our #PlunketShield fixture is on a knife's edge. Logan van Beek (32*) and Pete Younghusband (8*) are set to resume a key run chase -- if and when this drizzle clears.

Came up just short on the final day 💔 Our final match of the summer will begin this Saturday as we host Canterbury in the last round of the #PlunketShield. We could still have a chance to retain the shield, however we will need to rely on other results. @photosportnz
