– 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. The tour of Pakistan saw New Zealand lose the first Test by an innings and 64 runs after falling to 79 in their second innings, and Cameron was brought into the team in place of Bryan Yuile. He took six wickets for 105 in the match, but Pakistan still drew the game – before winning the third Test after chasing down 202 to win. Cameron failed to take a wicket in the chase, though his 108-minute last-wicket stand of 63 with Bev Congdon was a New Zealand tenth-wicket record. Cameron went on one last tour – aged 33, he went to England in the 1965 season and played two of the three Tests there. After bowling figures of 32–5–122–0 in a tour match against Warwickshire, Cameron was left out of the team to play the third Test. He did play the last three tour matches against Scotland, Ireland and Netherlands, taking 19 wickets, but was never selected again for Test cricket, and retired after the 1966–67 season. Post-playing career Cameron served as a New Zealand selector from 1968 to 1986, and as chairman of the selection panel from 1975 to 1986. He also served as match referee in three Tests and five One Day Internationals. A schoolteacher, Cameron rose to become deputy principal of Otago Boys' High School. In 1983, he married Linley Rose Waters. In the 1987 New Year Honours, Cameron was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire, for services to cricket. Cameron died in Christchurch on 2 January 2023, aged 90.
