R Howard and JW Burke put on 103 for the first wicket in the Australians first innings
WA Brown and AK Davidson added 207 for the sixth wicket in the Australians first innings
AK Davidson and LJ Johnson added 168 (undefeated) for the eighth wicket in the Australians first innings
Davidson's performance of capturing all ten wickets in the Wairarapa first innings and then making a century in the same match is without parallel in representative cricket in New Zealand
