The Crusaders ran in five tries as the Canterbury side cut through the Sharks in an entertaining victory watched by 35,094 fans at Twickenham. It was the first Super 15 game to be played in the northern hemisphere because February's earthquake in New Zealand forced a move from the Crusaders' home in Christchurch.
