A heavy downpour had earlier made a game seem unlikely, however, with a latest possible start time of 6.40pm and snappy work from ground staff a six-over game was underway in the nick of time – resulting in an entertaining display of urgent big hitting.The Devon Hotel Stags will now hunt that elusive first win against the top-of-the-table Otago Volts at the same ground on 5 January.
