Notes
--> Day 1 Lunch: Wellington XI (1) 74/2 (Banks ?*, Hiddleston 2*)
--> Day 2 Lunch: Hawke's Bay (1) 93/8 (MHN Beuth 32*)

---

Rain forced the players from the field for 25 minutes during the first session on the first day with Wellington XI 52/1 (Banks 18*, Westbrook 32*)
Rain stopped play again with Wellington XI 74/2 so an early lunch was taken
Rain set in shortly after 4pm and with no prospect of a resumption play was abandoned for the day
With two Hawke's Bay teams playing simultaneously (the other team played Manawatu), Arthur Keith Cotterill (aged 43 years, 104 days) was recalled having last played for Hawke's Bay in 1902
Hawke's Bay debuts: EW Mitchell, LH Scott-Kelly, HL Williams
