Match Notes
- This was the Croft/Goodall test. At tea on day 3, WI were so incensed by umpire Goodall that they refused to come out for session 3 until he was replaced. They emerged after a delay of 11 minutes, but removed all gear from the dressing room at the end of the day's play. The following day was a rest day but officials were fully occupied ensuring that the game continued.
- On the following day, Colin Croft "again behaved abominably, needling umpire Goodall, petulantly knocking off the bails and eventually charging deliberately into the umpire. What made matters worse was that Mr Goodall then had to walk the length of the pitch to discuss matters with Lloyd, whose lack of action condoned this dismal performance taking place under his captaincy."
- BA Edgar (1) retired hurt on 5* from 14/0 to 15/1
