The Central Stags are New Zealand's representative in the Airtel Champions League Twenty20 2010. The Stags - the team from Central Districts - make it to the CLT20 by virtue of beating Auckland Aces in the final of the HRV Cup - New Zealand's domestic Twenty20 competition. That the Stags won the HRV Cup isn't surprising, given that they have several exciting players in their line-up. Among the batsmen, they have Peter Ingram who finished as one of the top two run-getters in the HRV Cup. They will miss the services of Ross Tayor, the other leading run-scorer, who will turn out for RCB in this tournament instead. Another casualty is Jacob Oram - one of the top two wicket-takers in the domestic competition - who is out with injury. But with players like Matthew Sinclair and Michael Mason, the Stags have an impressive unit with players who can swing the course of a match single-handedly. With their title win in the HRV Cup in the season just gone by, the Central Stags have ended a brief drought of titles; they last won a title in domestic cricket in 2005-06 when they picked up the Shell Trophy.
