This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
Staffordshire won this match by an innings and 69 runs at 3.10pm on the second day. This was a bowler’s game, although Staffordshire, with the first innings, made a decent score. Durham were always struggling for runs. The returning S F Barnes was deadly in the first innings, with 8 for 33, and in their second E J Johnson had a most remarkable analysis. Two thirds of his overs were maidens and his 7 wickets cost exactly one run each. Staffordshire have now recorded five successive victories, four by an innings and one by 9 wickets.
