Northern Districts cricketer Scott Styris capped a memorable match by
backing his unbeaten 156 with a five-wicket haul against the New
Zealand Academy at Queen Elizabeth II Park.
The quality of Styris's effort enabled Northern Districts to take a
104-run first innings lead after the Academy was dismissed for 233
yesterday. Styris scythed through the Academy middle order with his
medium-pacers, prompting a slump after the Academy had been well
placed at 143 for two.
Short scoreboard:
Northern Districts 337-7 dec. (S Styris 156no) and 69-3 (G Aldridge
35no; R West 2-24)
beat
New Zealand Academy 233 (L Vincent 87, J Englefield 36, M Jefferson
31, J Marshall 20; S Styris 5-32, M Hart 2-51, H Marshall 2-0) on the
first innings.
