The Canterbury team recently competed in their first match of the new season against the Auckland Aces. In this game, the Auckland team decided to bat first and managed to score 185 runs while losing five wickets in their allotted twenty overs. In response, the Canterbury Kings were unable to match the Auckland team's score and were bowled out for 158 runs in just 17.5 overs. As a result, Auckland emerged victorious with a comfortable margin of 27 runs. One standout performer for the Canterbury Kings in this game was Michael Rippon, who took two wickets for 27 runs in his four overs. Other bowlers, including Michael Rae, Angus McKenzie, and Cole McConchie, also contributed by taking a wicket each. Rippon was particularly commendable for his wicket-taking ability as well as his economical bowling. The Canterbury Kings' chase did not start off well, with early wickets falling in their innings. However, Mitchell Hay and Bevon Jacobs provided a glimpse of hope during the chase. Hay, the wicketkeeper-batsman, scored 43 runs from 25 balls, while Jacobs contributed 42 runs from 20 balls. The Kings' management will rely on these two batsmen to continue scoring significant runs in future matches.

Cole McConchie (C), Chad Bowes, Henry Shipley, Ken McClure, Leo Carter, Mitchell Hay (WK), Zakary Foulkes, Angus McKenzie, Matt Henry, Michael Rae, Ed Nuttall.

The Otago Volts made their debut in the competition against the Wellington Aces in Wellington. The Wellington team batted first and set a challenging target of 234 runs, losing five wickets in the process. Unfortunately, the Otago Volts were unable to successfully chase this target and were bowled out for 160 runs in 16.5 overs. Travis Muller performed exceptionally well as the best bowler for the Otago Volts, although he only managed to take one wicket. He was the only bowler to avoid being punished by Tim Robinson. Dean Foxcroft, Ben Lockrose, and Matthew Bacon also achieved success in taking wickets for Otago but allowed many runs. The Otago management has high hopes for these bowlers in the upcoming match. Jake Gibson was the highest run-scorer for the Otago Volts, scoring 56 runs from 31 balls, which included three sixes and six fours. The captain, Dean Foxcroft, also displayed good performance, scoring 29 runs from 15 balls with two fours and two sixes. Matthew Bacon contributed with some late hits, but the team was never in contention for a successful chase.
