TARANAKI PREMIER CRICKET - UNITED DESERVING OF DOMINANT WIN! 🏆
New Plymouth Marist United (NPMU) have won Taranaki Crickets Premier grade two day final in dominant fashion over Inglewood. The final will be remembered for the individual performance of NPMU’s Ryan Watson, his performance will go down as one of the greatest of all time in a final at this level.
On Friday, NPMU lost the toss and on a green wicket Inglewood skipper Aaron Zame had no hesitation in asking his opposition to bat first. The Inglewood bowlers were probably guilty of not quite hitting the right line and length consistently in the first session however they created enough chances to have put pressure on NPMU but NPMU went to lunch at 89 for 3. NPMU started to assert their dominance in the second session with Robbie Yule and Ryan Watson at the crease. The pair would bat for the entire second session and part of the final session putting on a 179 run partnership to lift NPMU to 263 for 4. Watson would be the first dismissed for a magnificent 122 off 165 balls, an innings that included 18 boundaries and two sixes. Yule would follow Watson back to the sheds a couple of overs later for a patient 60 off 180 balls, once Inglewood had both the set batsman out, they chipped away and in the final hour of play on day one picked up a further couple of wickets with NPMU reaching stumps at 299 for 8.
The decision to play the final over three days once again paid dividends as Saturday was a complete wash out.
Sunday morning and the weather had improved with the NPMU tail wagging before finally dismissed for 330. Inglewood seamer Jason Dombroski picked up 5 for 89 in a marathon 31 overs.
The Inglewood batsman came out knowing they had to score the runs to lift their first two day title as a no result would see NPMU awarded the trophy as top qualifiers, it started off badly for Inglewood with Troy Chilcott dismissed for a duck in the second over. Sam Broadmore continued his good form making 41 however did not get a lot of support. Ryan Watson would come back for his second spell and prove to be the match winner as he ripped apart the Inglewood middle order picking up 5 for 38 off 17 overs as Inglewood capitulated for 112, with NPMU leading by 228 there was not going to be enough time for Inglewood to force a result and therefore conceded, the victory put an end to NPMU’s impressive season which saw them also win the Premier T20 title.
It was easy to pick the man of the match with Ryan Watson picking up a century in difficult and trying conditions and finishing the season with a five wicket bag to lead his team to victory.

TARANAKI PREMIER CRICKET FINAL SHOWDOWN
The Premier two day title is up for grabs with New Plymouth Marist United (NPMU) taking on Inglewood over the next three days at Pukekura Park. The prized piece of silverware has been elusive for both these teams with NPMU last winning in the 2012/13 season and Inglewood yet to have their name engraved on the trophy.
This year sees NPMU go in as top seeds after defeating New Plymouth Boys High School in the semi final. They go into the game unchanged from their semi final win and will once again look to their senior players to steer them to victory, openers Ryan Fleming and Dean Robinson will look to get their team off to a steady start with the Taranaki seam duo of Ryan Watson and Shay Smith to do the damage with the ball.
On the other hand Inglewood has been forced into a change through injury, up and coming allrounder Chris Logan has had surgery this week and will be missing from the line up. Inglewood would be one of the most consistent teams over the last 12-15 years but struggle to get the job done in the final. They have a wealth of experience right throughout their side with Aaron Zame, Jason Dombroski and Hayden McIntyre all lining up.
The game is scheduled to start at 10:00am each day.

NEW PLYMOUTH MARIST UNITED TO TAKE ON INGLEWOOD IN PREMIER CRICKET FINAL
The final of the two day premier cricket competition will see New Plymouth Marist United (NPMU) take on Inglewood at Pukekura Park next weekend.
NPMU finishing on top after the round robin went head to head with New Plymouth Boys High School (NPBHS) in the semi final. NPMU won the toss and elected to bat first but NPBHS Fianlay Barnes struck two early blows to see NPMU 17 for 2. An 88 run partnership between Dean Robinson (50) and Robbie Yule (44) steadied the ship and put NPMU in control. NPBHS would continue to chip away and on the back of a Liam Carr five wicket bag did well to restrict NPMU to just 212. Carr finishing with 5 for 53. NPMU opening bowler Ryan Watson soon put his teammates at ease picking up a wicket in his first over. NPBHS batsman failed to get the scoreboard ticking over with Watson bowling unchanged and in devastating form, he returned figures of 6 for 18 off 12 overs as no NPBHS batsman made double figures and they were rolled for just 32. With a first innings lead enough to see NPMU through to the final their batsman were sent out to take time out of the game and that’s exactly what openers Sean Mosquera and Dean Robinson did. The pair put on 88 for the first wicket, Robinson would go on and top score with 79 and NPMU got through to 174 for 2 before NPBHS threw in the white towel.
NPMU will take on Inglewood after Inglewood comprehensively defeated New Plymouth Old Boys (NPOB). Inglewood won the toss and elected to bat to get runs on the board, it was slow going with Inglewood scoring at two runs an over, Sam Broadmore top scored with 54 off 212 balls and Hayden McIntyre 41 off 103 balls, these two were the main contributors to Inglewood’s first innings total of 157. Like Inglewood, NPOB batsman also found it difficult to score and limped through to stumps at 61 for 5. In the morning the Inglewood bowlers came out firing and cleaned up the NPOB tail knocking them out for just 70, Inglewood stalwart Jason Dombroski did most of the damage with 6 for 20 off 19 overs.
With an 87 run lead Inglewood just needed to bat out the day to see them through to the final, once again Sam Broadmore was a thorn in the side of NPOB as he batted for another 98 balls, Chris Logan batting at 10 would top score with 32 as Inglewood were bowled out for 123 and a lead of 210. With very little time left in the day the NPOB batsman had no other choice to but to chase the runs, they never got close as Chris Logan and Jason Dombroski combined to take 9 wickets between them which saw NPOB all out for 58 giving Inglewood the outright victory by 152 runs. Logan finished with figures of 5 for 23 and Dombroski 4 for 35 and match figures of 10 for 55.
The final will be played over three days starting on Friday 9th April at Pukekura Park.
