He was asked to bowl a lengthy spell in warm and sunny conditions on the opening morning, and was at times lying on the ground in an attempt to recover during stoppages. Nevertheless, he ended with 1/28 from 16 overs, the opposition still unable to score heavily despite his obvious lethargy.[78] He took a total of 3/59 from 25 overs and scored one as the tourists won by an innings,[7][8] removing the home team's captain George Mann twice and Edrich once.[79] In the second innings, Lindwall took 2/31, but effectively had a third wicket.
