Norwood v. Erratics

The Sporting Life (16 july 1891, p. 4)

Under most favourable conditions this match was decided yesterday (Wednesday) on the picturesque and delightfully situated ground of the Norwood Club. The Erratics batted first, and ran up a fairly good score of 109, but the home eleven showed exceptional form, and by accumulating 254, won the match by 145 runs. It should be stated that the Erratics were weak in the bowling department. Score:—
