The 1st XI took on Otorohonga. Bowling first, we were made to work very hard by a powerful batting line up. Eli Spadoni had the best figures with 3-40 off 14 overs while Matthew Fisher and Bede Higgens took two wickets each as Otorohanga made 234 for 7.
In reply St Paul's were going well through Mitchell Bailey with an excellent 66 and Sean Dykes with 40. However despite a hard hit 25 by Reuben Andrews, St Paul’s lost too many wickets in the second half of the innings and had to fight hard to earn a draw as they finished on 189 for 9.
