Property Brokers United's middle order have a big task ahead as they resume chasing Wanganui Vet Services Marist's challenging total of 322-9 decl at Tasman Tanning Victoria Park on Saturday.
In a slight correction from previous stories, the Cricket Wanganui clubs will play day two of their Coastal Challenge two-day match this weekend, instead of on November 20, which has become the rescheduled date for the Furlong Cup representative fixture between Riverview Motel Wanganui and Subway Manawatu.
The other Coastal Challenge games between the Horowhenua-Kapiti and Wairarapa clubs will still conclude on November 20th, as their representative sides are facing the Hawke's Bay and Taranaki teams respectively this weekend.
Having an extra day of red-ball club cricket will be good preparation for the Wanganui representative players in the United and Marist lineups.
United will have it all to do as they resume on 88-3, with Carter Hobbs (40 not out) in sight of a Premier 1 half-century, having been joined by Whanganui captain Chris Sharrock not long before the close of play last weekend.
