Notes
--> Each first innings was limited to 80 overs

---

Only 39 minutes play was possible on the first day
On the second day Otago Under-23s declared to deny Central Districts Under-23s their third bowling bonus point which would have given them the winning point in the tournament
Central Districts Under-23s did get the point which gave them the tournament victory when their total reached 130
Play was abandoned when rain started to fall as soon as the Central Districts Under-23s first innings ended
