Notes
--> Bowling in the Ashburton County first innings adds 5 runs under
--> Bowling in the North Otago first innings adds 5 runs under
Heavy rain overnight after the first day's play meant the pitch was unplayable on the second day so a new pitch was prepared and play began at 11.15am
Messrs J Eskrick and MS Holmes umpired the first day with Mr L Tweed replacing Mr Eskrick on the second day
