Of the winning bowlers, R. H. Goodwin was in excellent form and took wickets for but 20 runs, Chadwick bearing the brunt of the attack only getting 3 for 46 and J. C. Jenkins taking 2 for 16 in 8 overs, and being difficult to play.
The winners started in auspicious style, and the first wicket partnership yielded 34 runs, with Read and Burford both hitting out, Heap had a long innings to get his 30 runs, being very patient throughout, but J. C. Jenkins in contrast started slowly, but once he got his eye in, he hit out strongly and was able to connect once to get a "six." He carried his bat for 51 and was mainly responsible for the day's victory. The match was won early on, but they played out time until it was too dark to carry on, The losing bowlers were not particularly successful, and the most gratifying result was turned in by J. C. Lucas who incidentally bowled the most overs, average being 2 for 26. Scores:—
