    Notes:
    

    • 12th man for Rhodesia was AJ Traicos.
    • There was considerable controversy about the inclusion of BJ Versfeld in the Natal team, only a month after being severely hit on the head by Peter Pollock of Eastern Province, and was clearly not yet fully recovered.
    • The fall of wickets in Rhodesia's first innings is not possible unless somebody retired hurt.
