This match was drawn. Rain prevented any play on the first day and delayed the start on the second until 2.00 pm. Put in to bat by Wiltshire, Surrey 2nd XI were dismissed in 85 minutes for 27 runs, the second lowest total of the season. Stevens carried his bat for 51 runs in the Wiltshire innings. It was the only instance that this feat was achieved during the season. For Surrey 2nd XI, W C Smith took 8 wickets for 43 runs. He had conceded 32 runs without taking a wicket, then took 8 wickets for 11 runs, all his victims being bowled.
[Missing: Extras breakdown; fall of wickets; in Surrey second innings batting order; in Wiltshire innings boundaries in Stevens's 51*, and runs conceded bowling 2 in excess.]
