Making Up For Lost Time

The Taranaki cricket season has begun with a near perfect start, with two inspiring performances; an outright victory over Masterton, in Mustardton; and another away first innings victory against Hawkes Bay, the current Hawke Cup holders.

Whilst the team has started with such dominant form, the best sporting support crew in the world has been a fair way behind, unable to make appearances at either of the two games.
It is now time for Mustardos, present or hopeful, to come out in their droves for Tranakai's first home game of the season at Pukekura Park on Saturday/Sunday, December 5th-6th.
Sunday the 6th is sure to be a huge day for any prospective Mustards to put on a good performance on home soil to assist the boys in another victory to stay top of the table, and that much closer to another Hawke Cup challenge, and the dream of once again drinking from the Holy Grail.

Once again Taranaki will have a good squad of players to choose from, and selectors Ali Jordan and Kerry O'Neill will have a tough decision in finalising their 12 man team to play, likewise, the Mustardo's will have a good mixture of youth and experience. But with limited Mustardo shirts on offer, it will be a touch challenge for potential Mustardos to prove themselves and standout on the big stage. Outlandish behaviour which lifts not only the spectators on the terraces, but the players in the middle is what will be required to secure the coveted Mustardo Polo.

Look forward to another Mustard day in the sun
