At the start of the last over all results were possible: the Club needed to 10 to win with 1 wicket standing and the captain, John Carroll, at the crease.  MCC played it mean, adopting a "we-don't-want-to-lose" field with men on the boundaries everywhere.  This gave John nowhere to go for the runs and he decided that there was no point in perishing and saw the Club home to an excellent draw.
