- Ranjitsinhji, although ill, emulated H Graham by scoring a
hundred in his first Test in Australia having done so in
England.
- MacLaren, deputising for AE Stoddart whose mother had died,
scored a hundred in his first Test as captain.
- Darling had the distinction of being the first left-hander
to score a hundred in a Test match.
- McLeod was run out by Storer when he left his crease after
being bowled by a no-ball. His deafness prevented him from
hearing the umpire's call.
- Kelly became the first wicket-keeper to prevent any byes
in a total of over 500.
