This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
Surrey 2nd XI won this opening championship match of the season by 73 runs just before 2.00 pm on the second day. For the winners, there were 13 fours in Nice's 73. In the Surrey second innings, Nice and Graburn added 54 runs for the seventh wicket. The four catches held by Higgins in the match were the most by a wicket-keeper during the season, a feat equalled
on three other occasions. The six dismissals made by Higgins in the match were the most during the season, a feat achieved by two others. The gate amounted to £12 which "was considerably disappointing".
