New Zealand v South Africa 1998-1999

At Napier, March 25 (day/night). No result. Toss: South Africa. International debut: C. E. Bulfin.

All of the top-order batsmen--including the captain, Fleming, back more than two months after surgery on his groin--hit runs as New Zealand amassed a challenging total. But rain ended play nine balls into the South African reply.
