Sydey Cricket Ground
6th-7th, 9th-13th January 1899
Lineups:
New South Wales - VT Trumper, H Donnan, MA Noble, SE Gregory, FA Iredale, RA Duff, AL Newell, JJ Kelly, LW Pye, TR McKibbin, WP Howell

First Innings
In a game New South Wales had to win to have any chance of wining the Sheffield Shield this season, records tumbled. VT Trumper's score may not be broken for a very long time, and NSW felt confident enough to declare with many wickets in hand and leave their bowlers to do the work.
NSW 498-3 dec
VT Trumper 220; MA Noble 122; H Donnan 83
JC Reedman 1-38
A resilient South Australian side defied the odds and even took the lead!
NSW 498-3 dec
SA 500
JJ Lyons 101; J Darling 91; FT Hack 78; G Giffen 55
MA Noble 6-130
Second Innings
Another fine batting performance from the home side would be worthless if the bowlers didn't shape up.
NSW 498-3 dec + 390
SA 500
RA Duff 129; JJ Kelly 70
E Jones 3-87; G Giffen 3-93
And the bowlers were just not in this game at all as SA wobbled towards the end but ultimately gave the title to Victoria.
NSW 498-3 dec + 390
SA 500 + 389-8
FT Hack 110; A Green 68*; G Giffen 68
MA Noble 3-99
South Australia wins by two wickets
