Notes
--> The match was scheduled for one day but extended to two.

An appeal against the light was upheld at 5.20pm on the first day
Rain started falling after lunch on the second day so as soon as the Wellington XI innings ended the captains agreed to abandon the game
Taranaki debuts: J Beamish, A Bowen and JD Scott
