Toshack had a moderately successful Third Test, in which England elected to bat first. England lost two early wickets, and when Toshack came on, Jack Crapp repeatedly defended a sequence of deliveries to Arthur Morris at silly point.[53] As the hosts were in trouble, they played cautiously and Toshack's first five overs were all maidens.[54] Crapp then hit Toshack to Sid Barnes at short leg, but the catch was dropped.
