Papps century not enough

Despite an unbeaten century from Michael Papps, New Zealand 'A' were beaten comprehensively in the tri-series final against South Africa 'A'. The New Zealanders batted first and Papps anchored the innings as they crawled to 216/7. James Franklin bowled well, taking 2-35 from his ten overs, but the South Africans were rarely troubled as they cruised home with six wickets in hand.
