Our thanks to Arthur Haygarth for collecting the information and to Roger Heavens for providing this scorecard which was first published in Arthur Haygarth's Cricket Scores and Biographies Volume 16. Copies of the book can be obtained from http://booksoncricket.net . Additions or corrections to this scorecard would be gratefully received.
This match was to have been played at Lord's on July 3rd but the weather then forbade it. H.W. Renny-Tailyour and other good cricketers did not play for the losers.
