Notes
--> Otago XI first innings: 100 in 77 minutes
--> Otago XI first innings: 200 in 154 minutes

The match was scheduled to be played on the 7th and 8th of December but the ground was too wet for any play on the 7th so it was agreed to play from 10am to 6.30pm on the 8th and from 10am to 1pm on the 9th
The start of the match on the 8th was delayed by one hour to allow the sun to further dry the ground
