Team: G. H. S. Trott (Capt.), A. E. Johns, C. J. Eady, J. Darling, H. Donnan, J. McKibbin, H. Graham, H. Trumble, E. Jones, G. Giffen, F. A. Iredale, J. J. Kelly, S. E. Gregory, C. Hill. Of three matches played, England won 2, Australia 1. The fast bowling of Ernest Jones, seen in England for the first time, caused a sensation. Two great left-handed batsmen, Joe Darling and Clem Hill, then only 19, also first appeared on this tour.
