First Innings

South Australia won the toss and batted first, looking to redeem themselves after the loss against Victoria, piling up a very tidy score on a very troubled pitch.

SA 370

WF Giffen 91; AH Jarvis 82; JC Reedman 46
ST Callaway 5-69

New South Wales, who struggled as the supposedly better bowling side, continued their difficulties with the bat, being forced to follow-on by South Australia. It could have been worse for a 9th wicket partnership of 61 between Turner and Callaway

SA 370
NSW 131

CTB Turner 40
E Jones 4-47; JC Reedman 3-18

New South Wales needed to score 239 to at least make South Australia bat again, but with runs scarce until Iredale walked on, it was a losing battle as SA won by an innings and 38 runs in match that lasted less than three whole days.

SA 370
NSW 131 + 201

FA Iredale 74; H Moses 38
G Giffen 4-58; JC Reedman 2-33
