First Innings
A terrific 153-run third wicket partnership had South Australia cruising, but the second half of the order failed to keep it up. The pitch had started to turn, so the visitors could hope they would be able to keep Victoria's score manageable.
SA 339
CE Dolling 112; JH Pellew 71
GR Hazlitt 4-49
Despite only one man making his century, the six who passed their half-centuries all contributed to a very impressive total. There were 120 runs on the board before South Australia managed to take a wicket, and the ninth pairing lasted for another 120 in style.

Second Innings
The third man in the lineup once again reached his century, while once again the rest of the batting order collapsed under the constant barrage from Victoria's bowlers, falling short of the required total.
SA 339 + 275
VIC 646
CE Dolling 111
FA Tarrant 3-55
Victoria wins by an innings and thirty-two runs.
