The following games ran in a similar fashion with the weather intervening to prevent an Australian whitewash. There were some notable standout performances from the GB side including: Umesh Valjee's 129 runs (first-ever GB test hundred) and 4–81 in the final game; Ross MacCauliffe’ 4–22 in the second game; and Philip Ottaway's 96 in the first game.
