CHANGE TO RESERVES DRAW - MAUKU REPLACES KARAKA

12 Dec 2011

Counties Manukau Cricket Association (CMCA) has announced a significant change in the Reserves grade draw for 2011-12, which will take effect immediately.

Karaka CC had entered a team in the competition, but defaulted their first few matches owing to lack of sufficient player numbers before withdrawing from the competition at the start of the second round, leaving just five teams in the draw, one of them forced to have a bye each week. Mauku CC, which had not originally entered a team in the competition at the start of the season, has enough players and has entered the draw with immediate effect. They will commence their season with a match against Pukekohe Metro at Colin Lawrie Park on 17th December 2011. Their entry has ensured that the draw now comprises an even number (6) of teams, thereby eliminating the bye out of the equation in the One Day Competition. 

Things will be a bit different in the Reserves Twenty20, though, with United CC Discount Panel & Paint Marauders withdrawing from the three-week long Twenty20 Competition to be held in January 2012. Mauku's entry and the Marauders' withdrawal has left the draw with 5 teams, which means that each of the remaining five teams will now have a bye at some stage of the competition. The United CC Harxin Corpn Crusaders will be United CC's flag-bearers in the competition. 

CMCA has updated the the respective draws for both the competitions, One Day and Twenty 20 on its website. The draw relevant to the United CC Harxin Corpn Crusaders and the United CC Discount Panel & Paint Marauders has been updated on this website as well and can be viewed by clicking on the FIXTURES tab and selecting the relevant team.
