--> KJ Burns (1) 50 in 84 minutes
--> RE Martin retired hurt in the North Otago first innings having scored 19 (team had lost 0 wickets) - he returned when the score was 237/7

Heavy rain before the covers had been put on the pitch the day before the match delayed the start of the match by an hour on the first day
RE Martin was forced to retire hurt with a back injury but was able to resume his innings late on the first day
Bad light ended play at 6.55pm on the first day
