Notes
--> There was no play on the final day.
--> Taranaki first innings batting adds 2 runs under
--> Extras breakdown not available for the Taranaki first innings

Heavy overnight rain seeped under the covers and after an inspection following the scheduled lunch break on the second day the pitch was declared unfit so the game was abandoned
Taranaki debut: TJA Scriven
