The Bay of Plenty Development team returned home from Taupo on Sunday after a fine win over Hawke's Bay.

Hawke's Bay won the toss at Owen Delaney Park and asked Bay of Plenty to bat first. Early momentum lay with the bowlers, with Bay of Plenty losing their sixth wicket with 123 runs on the board.

Tauranga Boys' College allrounder Tim Pringle and Jacob Logan came together to put on a 77 run partnership before Logan was removed for 56. Pringle carried on to top score with 62 as Bay of Plenty were dismissed for 241 with two balls to spare in their innings.

Hawke's Bay made a solid start and at 128/2 looked to be on target to chase down the target. Iman Singh then took charge to grab three quick wickets to put the brakes on the Hawke's Bay batsmen.

Pringle and Logan backed up their batting exploits to do the damage with the ball. Pringle took 4-18 and Logan 2-18 as Hawke's Bay were bowled out for 189 in the 47th over.

Bay of Plenty coach Russell Williams can be well pleased with the performance of his mainly under 17 and under 19 players, as they prepare for the second half of the Northern District Development season.

Bay of Plenty Development 241 (Tim Pringle 62, Jacob Logan 56, Blair McKenzie 25; TR Richardson 4-45) defeated Hawke's Bay 189 (HY Young 64, LT Kenworthy 50; Tim Pringle 4-18, Iman Singh 3-40, Jacob Logan 2-18)
