New Zealand played seven Tests on the subcontinent that summer, four in India and three in Pakistan, but Cameron only played one of the India games – the final Test at the Feroz Shah Kotla. After three drawn Tests had opened the series, Cameron took one for 86 as India took a 203-run lead on first innings, and though Cameron made a career-best 27 not out in a 51-run ninth-wicket stand with Richard Collinge, India were set a target of 70. Cameron was taken for 29 in four overs, and though he dismissed M. L. Jaisimha hit wicket, India won by seven wickets.
