Domestic round up round 5
Three matches and three draws. A bit of a wash out, literally in the case of the top of the table clash between CD and Wgtn (which CD had the better of it must be conceded). I don’t know if it rained in Auckland, but the Outer Oval wicket seems too unsporting for a result over 6 days – this time around 1191 runs were scored for only 25 wickets.

Top bat: Sinclair’s 164 was the top score, but I’m disqualifying him for petulance. Instead I’ll give top bat to his team mate Bevan Griggs for his aggressive 143.
Top bowl: Suave’s mate Tarun Nethula bowled a great 4/100 innings (including a c&b, yee hah!), following up on 2/75 in the first innings.
