This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
Drawn return match with Wiltshire winning on first innings. The match between the two teams at Bletchley the week before had been won by Wiltshire. For the home side, there were 19 fours in R W Awdry's 104 and Miller scored 53. Heavy rain prevented any play after 2.00 pm on the second day, almost certainly saving Buckinghamshire from a heavy defeat.
[Missing: Toss; umpires; extras breakdown; fall of wickets; large partnerships; in Wiltshire first innings boundaries in Miller's 53; in Buckinghamshire second innings batting order and runs bowling 2 in excess.]
