Notes
--> GN Adam retired hurt in the Southland innings having scored 3 (team had lost 1 wickets)

---

This was the first of two 40-over matches that were effectively trials to select the Otago team to play in the inaugural New Zealand Motor Corporation limited over knockout tournament
A flaw in the newspaper source of this scorecard went through the overs column in the Otago XI bowling figures
The Otago XI selector had first call on Southland players with 3 players from Southland included in the Otago XI (GD Alabaster, JC Alabaster and BJ McKechnie)
