'The batting of the teams we met in Canada did not attain a high standard—they seemed incapable of facing our bowlers, and fell victims to easy balls, which ought to have been severely punished—but nothing else could perhaps be expected. It must be said, however, that we met some excellent bowling, and that the fielding of the Canadians was very creditable.'
