The pitch was very good tobat on and this undoubtably contributed to the the speed of this innings, scoring his runs in just 236 balls.The Central Districts bowling was lead by Brent Hefford with a fine spell of27 overs for four for 48. At one point he had bowled 6-2-11-3 and AndrewSchwass who kept niggling away with four for 85 from 22.1 overs.Central Districts came out to bat in their second innings leading by 43 andextended this by stumps to 104 with nine wickets in hand.Spearman on 30 not out is almost certainly a danger man for Otago tomorrow.Having secured points for a first innings lead and to push their way up theShell Trophy table it is assumed that a game will be made of this fixtureand it will not be allowed to peter out by either side to a dull draw.But, it takes two to tango and Otago also will have to play their part when the run chase begins for batting conditions are such that it seems unlikely that Central Districts will be bowled out cheaply.
