Notes
--> Kimberley full substitute: FW Smith for CSE Rutherfoord
--> Bowling in the RG Warton's XI first innings adds 10 runs over
--> Bowling in the Kimberley first innings adds 11 runs under

Shortly after the start of the match Rutherfoord, Kimberley wicket-keeper, was struck on the head by a 'flyer'
from Finlayson and had to retire from the match -- his place was taken by F Smith
HB Howe is mentioned as F Howe in the commentary?
