One day final set for a rematch

It will be a rematch of last weekend's two-day final as Stoke-Nayland earned the spot to face Wolves (Wanderers/Motueka).

In the 2v3 Saturday one-day finals eliminator, Stoke-Nayland were too strong for New World Nelson City Wakatu at Marsden Recreation, winning by 112 runs.

The result sees them into Sunday's final at Brightwater Domain as the Wolves look to make it two trophies in as many weeks as The Car Company premier cricket season comes to an end.

Despite some early rain, the clouds were burnt off as Stoke-Nayland fought for redemption after a tough loss last weekend.

And they started strongly, with Chris Dittmer opening the batting after they won the toss and putting on a game-high 76 runs.

His opening partner, Liam Clark, added a handy 27, only to be replaced by Joshua Smith, who put on another 31.

Darius Skeaping (31) was also in the mix alongside his captain, Dylan Eglinton (29), as the home side piled on 234/9 after their 50 overs.

In response, Wakatu struggled to gain traction as five batsmen made it into the double digits.

Bryan Krammer would top score with 39, but the bowlers shone through.

Liam followed up his batting performance with a fifer, picking up a large portion of the tail end with some deadly off-spin and the key breakthrough of Bryan's wicket.

The performance saw Wakatu stumble to 122 all-out at the end of the 36th over, unable to build any meaningful partnerships in their run chase.

With just one game remaining for the season, the result sidelines the team until next summer.
