New Zealand Premier League XIII

Excellent performance from the bowlers. Gave a decent target for the opposition, and the bowling was spot on. Brownlie played extremely well and smashing performance from Watson at the top. Overall It was a great triumph.
 
Much better perfromance this time around by the players. Amla finally found some form, whereas, Hussey and Vincent kept on going from where they left. Good to see McCullum and Razzaq bowl efficently too.

The Shield looks like a great idea btw. Really looking forward to it.

Mohammad Aamir Banned From Bay Of Plenty Vikings Due To Recent Match Fixing
 
Lol, Mohammad Amir has been one of your best players so far, I wouldn't ban him. ;)
 
The Waikato Warriors are the inaugural Hadlee Shield holders!!!

They've beaten four other teams on NRR, to be the first holders of this new trophy.

The shield has been named after New Zealand's greatest ever cricketer, Sir Richard Hadlee. He tormented batting line-ups throughout the 1970's and 1980's, becoming the first bowler in the history of the game to pass 400 test match wickets.

Their first defence of the shield will be in round seven, against the Otago Volts. Both of these teams do not play at home again until round ten, so it will be on the line just twice this season, as it will not be on the line during playoff matches.

The shields design has been based on the most prestigious trophy in New Zealand's domestic rugby union competition, the Ranfurly Shield.

yay lol

Didn't think I'd have it first up after some poor performances :)
 
Prize Money Update:

* Holding the Hadlee Shield at some point during the season:- 100,000 vCash
* Every successful defence of the Hadlee Shield:- 100,000 vCash
 
The Shield goes on the line at all of the holders home games, during the round robin.
Since we're already half way through the round robin, they've already had three home games.
There next home game is in round seven (against Otago), so the Shield will be go on the line for the first time then.
If Waikato beat Otago, there next home game/defence will be against you (Wellington) in round ten, since this is the last round and it can't be on the line in the playoffs, the winners of this match will start with it next season.
If Otago beat Waikato in round seven, then Otago's next home game after that will be up against Auckland in round ten.

Here's what it is in real life:

The Ranfurly Shield, colloquially known as the Log o' Wood, is the most prestigious trophy in New Zealand's domestic rugby union competition. First played for in 1904, the Ranfurly Shield is based on a challenge system, rather than a league or knockout competition as with most football trophies. The holding union must defend the Shield in challenge matches, and if a challenger defeats them, they become the new holder of the Shield.

Pretty much the Shield will be on the line at all of the holders home matches, except during knockout playoffs. If a challenger successfully takes the Shield, all of their home matches for the rest of the season are defences of it.
