Jamaica played their first first-class match in late March 1895 against R. S. Lucas' English team, losing by an innings. A second match, 12-a-side like the first, was played a few days later, Toone coming into the team as an opening bowler. He took 7 for 29 and 6 for 51, bowling unchanged through each innings, and Jamaica won by eight wickets.[2]
