Notes
--> J Brand (1) passed 500 runs in First-Class matches when he reached 11
--> W Searle (2) passed his previous highest score of 51 in First-Class matches
--> W Deedes equalled his best innings bowling analysis in First-Class matches in the Players first innings
--> F Nicholas equalled his best innings bowling analysis in First-Class matches in the Players second innings

Scores and Biographies gives Barnett and Nicholas as ‘not out' in the second innings as above, Bentley has Nicholas as absent (possibly not out overnight and unable to return)
