Notes
--> There was no play on the final day.

---

Heavy rain prevented any play on the first day
Play started in the afternoon on the second day but a hailstorm brought play to a close only an hour after the game had started
More rain meant there was no chance of any play on the final day so the game was abandoned at 10.20am
