This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
Rain prevented any play on the first day in this drawn match.
For Staffordshire, Hollowood scored 108, an innings of two hours and 25 minutes. With Brown, he put on 125 runs for the Staffordshire second wicket. For Northumberland, Marshall took 8 wickets in the Staffordshire innings for 71 runs. Northumberland sources give an alternative version of this score with Mott scoring 0 not 1, extras 14 not 13, and runs conceded by Hansell 19 not 20. There were no averages for Northumberland in the 1901 Wisden, but the Northumberland averages published in the Newcastle Daily Journal on 8 August are in line with the Staffordshire version, not the Northumberland one, and the former has been preferred here.
[Missing: One umpire; extras breakdown; fall of wickets; in Staffordshire inns breakdown of Hollowood's 108.
