They scored 17 runs in the first seven overs as both batsmen hit 2 fours each in the following overs and took the score to 42 when Hughes was gone for 15. Godleman was declared leg before wicket off Neil Wagner for 25 after the addition of five runs to the total. Their captain, Wayne Madsen, and Wes Durston tried to consolidate the innings and they were sending the ball out of the rope continuously.

The score was enhanced to 80 when Madsen lost his wicket for just six runs as Dan Redfern joined together with Durston who became the next victim at 84 at his personal contribution of 26 runs. The hosts were 5-98 in 32.1 overs as Richard Johnson associated with Redfern who opted to attack and the boundaries were flowing from his willow. Dan Redfern achieved his fifty in the 43^rd over with 3 back to back fours and the score was enhanced to 156 when Johnson was caught behind by Watling off Wagner for 14. The later was replaced by Peter Burgoyne as the flow of runs was checked by the visiting bowlers.

Redfern was the seventh batsman who went back to the dressing room for 58 off 70 balls with 12 fours as the total touched 165 in 50.2 overs. Burgoyne fought well for quite some time as the wickets kept on crumbling at the other end and he was finally caught behind by Watling off Neil Wagner for 30. Mark Footitt was the only other batsman who got few runs by scoring 22 as the entire team was sent back to the pavilion for 227 in 67.4 overs.

Neil Wagner was the star performer with five wickets, Doug Bracewell held three whereas Bruce Martin claimed two wickets.

The tourists clinched the match against Derbyshire by a good margin of 107 runs and New Zealand began their tour of England on a high note.
