Plunket Shield championship - Central Stags v Otago

How good is free admission to witness our defending national champions, the Central Stags, in the cauldron of national first-class cricket!

People pay big bucks to watch this in England, but we're all about showcasing the training ground for our current and future Test BLACKCAPS so head along to the park to see the stars in a national championship that dates back 117 years.

Last game of the season, with our lads hosting the Otago Volts! BYO lunch and coffee, as this is a no-frills event and you can take your pick of great viewing from anywhere in the Harris Stand or on the grass bank.

Live scoreboard to keep you up with the play and follow @centralstags on instagram for the behind the scenes content and updates. Toss on day one is 10am, with gates opening shortly beforehand and livescores at www.cdcricket.co.nz so you can check the state of play anytime before you pop in to see the good stuff in person.
