RJ Lahood and R Simpson added 107 in 94 minutes for the second wicket in the Taranaki second innings
Wanganui had 47 minutes to make 81 runs to win the game outright but made no effort to score the runs because they had the first innings lead and the game ended when their appeal against the light was upheld
Wanganui won the Smith Shield
