Sixty-two runs from opener Brad Kneebone set the precedence for a dominant second innings as Onerahi crept to a comfortable three-wicket win over Whangarei Boys' High School in round two of the Lion Red 2015-16 one day series.
Backed-up by No2 Tom Herman (30), Kneebone led Onerahi's opening partnership from the get-go, which allowed their side to have the gloves and pads off just after 31 overs as they chased down Whangarei BHS's 144.

Despite Boys' High's Sam Walker and Quinn Pooley taking two wickets a piece to deter Onerahi from victory, the consistency of Kneebone and Herman earlier on proved too precise as they notched up the bulk of Onerahi's 145/7 reply.
Tyler Lortan high-scored for Boys' High (66) but his teammates didn't enjoy the same success, with every batsman, bar Lortan and Walker, falling for fewer than 10 runs.
