Otago had restricted Canterbury to 221 for nine and was 175 without loss with about 15 overs remaining. Hamish Rutherford had just posted his sixth one-day century and Rob Nicol was batting nicely on 78. The Volts lost seven wickets in about 30 minutes to turn a canter into a scrambling win. But the groundwork had been laid by an impressive bowling effort and the huge opening stand between Nicol and Rutherford. Seamer Jack Hunter got the biggest haul of wickets for Otago with three for 19 from just four overs.
