This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
This return match was left drawn with Dorset winning on first innings - an identical result to that reached between the two teams just three days earlier. Rain prevented play until 4 pm on the first day and a further shower ended the day's play at 6.05 pm. For the home side Udal's 33 was the highest score of the match whilst Walby took 7 wickets for 21 runs in Wiltshire's first innings, during which he and Harrison bowled unchanged. For the visitors there was little of note to record.
