There's nothing better than relaxing on the banks at a first-class cricket oval, watching New Zealand's best cricketers battle it out in the purest form of the game. With names like Chris Martin, Kyle Mills and Martin Guptill seeking both domestic and international dominance this season, this is a great opportunity to see the Auckland Aces in action.

The Plunket Shield is New Zealand's premier domestic first-class cricket trophy for men's 4-day competition. The shield has been the historical foundation of domestic cricket in New Zealand for over a century.
