The printed scorecard showing the result of a match played in norfolk in 1797. Shows innings scores.
At a time when first class teams were comparatively few, it was the custom for them to play against odds, the weaker side being allowed to play, as is shown in this instance, as many as 33 men. In addition, the weaker side were often allowed the services of 'given men', i.e. first class players bought in for the occasion.
