Notes
--> There was no play on the final day.
--> Bowling in the Cork County first innings adds 7 runs over

CF Hanrahan, the Irish Rugby Football forward, D Perrott and TM O'Carroll played for Crusaders as guests due to illness.
According to Cork County records, Ferguson and Morton were British Navy Captains from the Spike Island facility in Cork Harbour, controversially made members of Cork County to strengthen the team for this match.
There was no play on day 2 and the match was eventually abandoned.
