-  Australia were unable to to avoid following-on, the
    compulsory margin in 1888 being 80 runs.
 -  The match ended at 1.52pm (before lunch on the second day),
    after Australia had been bowled out in 69 minutes.
 -  Heavy rain before the match produced a soft, wet pitch and
    gave the side batting first an enormous advantage.
    A hot, drying sun on the second day made the pitch a vicious
    "sticky"; 18 wickets fell before lunch.
