The Middlesex victory came against a side with many regulars absent, and only towards the end of the tour, in the wins against Glamorgan and Kent, did the side perform satisfactorily as a team.
Middlesex's success was largely due to their victory over a side that had several key players missing, but it wasn't until the final stages of their tour, where they defeated Glamorgan and Kent, that the team showed signs of being a well-oiled machine.
