Beldam began the match for Middlesex, but had to retire early due to an injured hand. Essex allowed Cobb to play in his place, but he did not arrive in time for the first innings. Trott also injured his hand on the first day and took no further part in the match.
HH Cobb kept wicket in the Essex second innings on day 3
