First Innings
South Australia were on the ropes before lunch on day one, standing at one point on 100-7. The final partnership between WJ Whitty and AW Wright got them past the two-hundred mark, but they would have been very disappointed they only managed so much on a batting wicket.

Victoria on the other hand almost matched their opponents score before losing a wicket. The first four batsmen excelled for 391 runs, while teh rest of teh order only managed 138 between them. It was enough to put them well in front of this contest.
