Notes
--> Day 2 Tea: Southland (2) 119/4 (Verrall 18*; 37.1 overs)
--> Bowling in the Otago B first innings adds 2 runs under
AD Pierce and JK Lindsay added 113 for the seventh wicket in the Otago B first innings
N McArthur and DS Cocks added 97 for the sixth wicket in the Southland first innings
C Hogue and TL Ward put on 71 in 115 minutes for the first wicket in the Southland second innings
Light rain had fallen for much of the afternoon on the second day but that turned to heavier rain during the tea break and no further play was possible
