First-class Matches
The tour started with a comfortable draw against British Universities at Fenner's, before stuttering to a disastrous innings defeat against Sussex and escaping with a draw in a rain-ravaged match against a second-string Northamptonshire. However, not even the horrible match at Sussex would have prepared them for what awaited in the first Test against England.

The second Test was won by an innings and 27 runs, resulting in a 2-0 series victory for England as they headed into the one-day tri-series with Australia.
