Notes
--> Bowling in the Canterbury B first innings adds 1 run under
Heavy overnight rain meant the pitch was badly rain-effected when Southland were sent in to bat and Southland declared to protect the lower order batsmen and to give their bowlers a chance to exploit a drying pitch
Phillips was forced to retire hurt after a delivery from Young reared up and struck him on the nose
