Notes
--> The match was scheduled for three days but completed in two.

---

Not clear why they didn't pay a 3rd day - perhaps it was agreed that an outright result was unlikely.
The umpires may have changed during the match as Mr H Blinman and Mr Chittleborough are both also mentioned as officiating.
The wicketkeeper for St Peter's College, Adelaide was either AE Evans (he kept in 1886/87) or AJ Campbell (he kept in 1888/89).
