The selection of the Ireland team for this match caused some difficulty for the selectors, EC Joyce, RW McDaid and GL Molins were unavailable from the team which played MCC.
It also transpired that AT Rutherford had been banned for one match over not playing against MCC, 4 of the original team selected, JAM Molins, JA Bushe, AD Patterson and WK McCallan cried off and were replaced by the two debutantes, ND Carson and PJK Mooney.
