This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
Surrey 2nd XI won this opening match of the season by four wickets, after the Glamorgan declaration set Surrey a victory target of 250 runs in 3¼ hours. This was seen as a rather premature declaration but a rain delay of 25 minutes made it a more difficult challenge. However Abel 'hit with such vigour' that the victory came at 7 minutes to 6pm. His 132 came in only 75 minutes and included 2 sixes, 2 fives, and 17 fours. He added 104 for the sixth wicket with Blacklidge in 45 minutes. There was 1 five and 1 seven in Wilkinson's 63. For the losers, there were 9 fours and 12 fours respectively in Bancroft's two innings of 62 and 81. Riches 71 contained 1 six and 5 fours and Morris's 55 included 7 fours.
[Missing: Part fall of wickets.]
