    • For Rhodesia, ET Laughlin made his first-class debut, while this was Parker's last match for the Rhodesia senior team.
    • J C Mitchell was twelfth man for Rhodesia.
    • After the disastrous, rain-ruined match against Transvaal during the 1968/69 season, Rhodesia abandoned the poorly drained A (upper) ground at the Police headquarters and played from henceforth on the B (lower) ground.
