Notes
--> The match was scheduled for one day but extended to two.
--> Bowling in the Nelson first innings adds 17 runs over
The Nelson captain objected to Haughton umpiring after he called two successive no-balls from Burns and the Wellington captain put Salmon in his place and withrew Haughton. IJ Salmon had injured himself on the boat coming over and Hickson was allowed to run for him. However, his services were not needed. In the second innings Blacklock did 'the running'. A single innings match was played after the game ended. Nelson 64 Wellington 69. Luxford took four first innings wickets and Lynch 1 which differs from Reese. Wellington batted first and not second as in Reese.
