Notes
--> The match was scheduled for one day but extended to two.
--> Bowling in the Indian XI innings adds 2 runs under
--> S Amarnath retired ill in the Rest of India innings having scored 8 (team score 101/5) (sick overnight)

Arrangements were made after Day 2 of the four day game when it seemed likely that that match would not last much longer on Day 3
MAK Pataudi came out to toss for Rest of India but then took no part in the game
