2013-14 HRV Cup

HRV Twenty20 (named after the competition's sponsor HRV) was the previous domestic Twenty20 cricket competition in New Zealand. The tournament had been held every year since 2006. The tournament currently consisted of a double round-robin, with the top four teams qualifying for the semi finals, with the winners proceeding to the grand final. The winner of the final was declared the champion, and gained entry to the Champions League Twenty20 tournament later in the same year. The competition was formerly named State Twenty20 until 2009. In 2014 it was replaced by the Georgie Pie Super Smash.
