Another competition, another Bay of Plenty-dominated Northern Districts Knights cricket team to start to the Ford Trophy provincial 50 over matches today.
There are five Bay of Plenty players in the 12 named for today's match against defending champions Auckland on the Eden Park Outer Oval.
Black Caps pace bowling stars Trent Boult and Neil Wagner will both be in the ND colours on the day many of their colleagues depart for the United Arab Emirates for the series against Pakistan starting next week.
Boult and Wagner will join that team later in the tour but won't be playing in the T20 matches there.
The Knights will be led today by Bay of Plenty's Dean Brownlie who takes over the skipper's reins from Daniel Flynn who was in charge for the Plunket Shield four-day matches.
