Notes
--> The match was scheduled for two days but extended to three.
--> There was no play on the final day.
The start of the match on the first day was delayed until 2.30pm waiting for the pitch to dry out
Heavy rain meant that no play was possible on both the second and third scheduled days and Taranaki decided not to claim the option of using an extra day
Taranaki debut: LSM Miller
