Cambridgeshire won this return match at 5.30 pm on the second day by an innings after enforcing the follow-on. The match at St Albans between the two teams at the beginning of the week had been won by Hertfordshire. For the home side, Bryan took 11 wickets in the match for 112 runs. Watts's 142, scored in 2 hours and 10 minutes, included 1 five, 20 fours, 1 three and 12 twos, and Hayward's 102 not out contained 9 fours, 5 threes and 11 twos. They put on 141 runs for the sixth wicket, which was the highest for that wicket during the season. Hayward and Bryan added 61 for the tenth wicket. For Hertfordshire, Dashwood's 82 contained 12 fours and White's 51 included 1 four. In the Hertfordshire second innings Dashwood and White put on 132 runs for the first wicket, which was the second highest partnership for that wicket in the season. The 50 extras conceded in the Cambridgeshire innings were a new innings record for the Championship.
