Grace was a member of Parr’s tour to Australia and New Zealand 1863/4, the second time an English XI had visited the antipodes. His only official Test for England was in 1880. Grace made his first class debut for MCC against Kent at Canterbury in 1862, scoring 192no and taking ten wickets in an innings.
