Briggs needed seven stitches after he pulled a ball from Draper into his face.
On the first day rain delayed the start until 1.50pm; one over was bowled and then rain returned. Play retarted at 4.40pm when the captains agreed that each team would bat for half the remaining time on the first day to contest first innings points.
