Notes
--> Waiapu full substitute: JSS Castell-Spence for MKD Castell-Spence (from the second day)
--> Waiapu first innings: 100 in 95 minutes
FC Bennett and JW Schollum added 105 for the third wicket in the Poverty Bay first innings
Play started 25 minutes late on the second day due to the late arrival of some of the Waiapu players
Poverty Bay had 30 minutes to score 71 runs for the outright win which they had not quite achieved at the scheduled time for the match to end but Waiapu agreed to play extra time due to the delayed start that day
Poverty Bay retained the Kirk Cup
