This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
This opening match of the season was drawn, with rain preventing any play on the second day.
It saw the entry of Cornwall into the Championship as a 'full member' for the first time.
The county had played two home and away matches with Glamorgan in 1897 and 1898 which had counted as championship matches for their opponents.
For Dorset, Crimmins scored 86 not out.
[Missing: Extras breakdown; fall of wickets; in Dorset innings boundaries in Crimmins's 86*, and bowling runs conceded 41 short in all sources listed.]
