Rain caused delay on the final day and Marylebone Cricket Club won only after W.G.Grace had agreed to carry on after the agreed closing time. Ten extra minutes were required for Marylebone Cricket Club to win. Grace's 110 took 155 minutes and included 15 fours. He completed 1,000 runs for the season.
