Twenty/20

The Otago Sparks have a shot at making a final if the next three days go well.

Otago completed a memorable three days with a narrow win in a twenty/20 match against Northern Districts in Invercargill yesterday.

The Otago Sparks head to Invercargill this weekend for a round of games against Northern Districts with their finals prospects hanging by a thread.

It was a weekend to forget for the Otago Sparks as they fell to Wellington in two games in the capital.

Two out of three ain't bad - it is great. The Otago Sparks have made an impressive start to the summer, beating a star-studded Central Districts side in two out of three matches in Invercargill.

Otago has signed two experienced but relatively unknown English professionals for the domestic twenty/20 tournament.

A planned expansion of the Indian Premier League (IPL) may create more opportunities for New Zealand cricketers to join the lucrative Twenty/20 tournament.
