This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
Despite the weather preventing any play on the first day and several rain interruptions on the second, Northamptonshire won this match by an innings and 7 runs with 27 minutes to spare. For the winners, Thompson took 13 wickets for 39 runs, including 7 for 13 in the Hertfordshire first innings. He also top-scored with his 46 not out, an innings which contained 4 fours. The Hertfordshire first innings total of 31 was the lowest of the season. The match aggregate of 187 runs for a completed match was also the lowest of the season. Dumbleton split a finger while fielding in the Northamptonshire innings and batted as last man in the visiting team's second innings. Horton acted as the substitute fielder.
