Otago led Auckland by 277 at stumps on day one of its Plunket Shield match yesterday. It took a fightback from the tail to help Otago through to that total, however, as its bottom three accounted for 100 runs. When Matt McEwan found an edge to dismiss Brad Wilson for 31, things were looking bad for Otago at 96 for four. Michael Guptill-Bunce went for 14 four overs later, being given lbw after a good-length ball from Michael Rae.
