Notes
--> Bendigo first innings batting adds 10 runs over
--> Bowling in the Bendigo second innings adds 10 runs under

Our thanks to Arthur Haygarth for collecting the information and to Roger Heavens for providing this scorecard which was first published in Arthur Haygarth's Cricket Scores and Biographies Volume 16. Copies of the book can be obtained from http://booksoncricket.net . Additions or corrections to this scorecard would be gratefully received.
In another account the Twenty-two went in first. Evidently the score was very carelessly kept but 4-ball overs were used. [This is Bowen's note but the score suggests that 5 ball overs were used.]
In another account Glen scores 8 in his first innings, but that would not make the total correct.
Source does not include R Bruce in the batting list for Bendigo. It is not clear whether a substitute batted or whether this is a typing error between the names A Bruce and R Bruce.
