A surge in voting for the New Zealand cricketers and Breakers has meant the race to determine New Zealand's favourite sporting moment is still being hotly contested less than a week before the winner is announced at the Halberg Awards.
The final whistle of the Rugby World Cup final and Lewis Brown's try to send the Warriors to their second NRL grand final had established a handy lead over four other special moments in New Zealand sport last year but recent successes by both the Black Caps and Breakers had seen them receive support in the public vote.
The winner will be announced at Thursday's Halberg Awards.
The contenders:
1. NZ Breakers - Win Australian National Basketball League championship
