The Deni Rhinos have two important clashes ahead.
A‑grade will travel to Nathalia for the first leg of a two‑day match to be played across January 17 and 24.
Deniliquin sits fourth on the ladder with four wins from eight games, while Nathalia holds second place with five wins from eight.
The sides last met in round four, where Nathalia claimed a five‑wicket victory.
Tight, disciplined bowling and a composed innings from Scotty Morris, who finished unbeaten on 32 with five boundaries, proved decisive in that match.
The Rhinos will be eager to turn the tables this time, particularly with ladder positions tightening in the run‑in to finals.
In B‑grade, Deniliquin will head to Katamatite for a one‑day match beginning at 1pm.
The Rhinos sit seventh with four wins from 11 games, while Katamatite is ninth with a single victory.
Their previous meeting came in round one, when Deniliquin secured a commanding 86‑run win, something they will be hoping to replicate.
With both grades well‑placed to push for higher ladder positions, this weekend shapes as an important opportunity, especially with finals nearing.
Advice on when last weekend’s rescheduled matches will be played is still pending.
The abandoned round was to be the first after the Christmas break, with Deniliquin’s A-grade Rhinos originally set to host Tocumwal and B-grade scheduled to travel to Cobram.
