Danish speedster Ole Mortensen rubbed shoulders against some of the best in business and came out on top with 4 wickets. North America were bowled out for 292 in a rather entertaining first innings.

Ken Barrington put behind a wretched Season VI to score a scintillating hundred against a very strong bowling attack. The Europeans were in the lead.

George Headley's century helped turn it around for the North Americans, as they went on to set Europe a sizeable target of 360. Garry Sobers and Clyde Walcott supported him well with half-centuries to their names.
