The match began on Thursday 15 March and continued on the Friday and Saturday before a rest day on the Sunday. It finished on Monday 19 March, 1877. Two Surrey men played important roles for England in that historic game. Harry Jupp opened the innings and finished with 63, which was the highest England score of either innings. Jupp was born at Dorking in November 1841 and died in April 1889. He played just two Tests, both in Australia in March, 1877, but appeared in 378 first class games, including 252 for Surrey.
