This tour was the only occasion on which the South Americans played first-class cricket as a team representing the whole continent, though individual members of the side played for their countries in matches against touring teams from England that were designated as first-class.
The team was captained by Clement Gibson, who had played first-class cricket in England for Cambridge University, MCC and Sussex.
The match against Sir Julien Cahn's XI produced a remarkable victory for the South Americans.
The South Americans responded with a century opening stand between Jackson and Dennet Ayling and totalled 338.
The South Americans played 12 other matches, all of them one- and two-day games, and many of them affected by the weather in a wet summer.
