Captain Rob Nicol topscored for the Volts with an unbeaten 65 against his former province.
Veteran allrounder Andy Ellis was the chief destroyer for the Canterbury Wizards, picking up 5-16 off his four overs, including three wickets in the final over of the Otago innings.

The Volts remain glued to the bottom of the table with their only points coming from an abondoned match against Wellington.
Meanwhile, Canterbury rose to first place, going ahead of Northern Districts on net-run-rate.
