 A reorganisation of Australian cricket took place in the wake of the tour . The first national body to control the game , the Australasian Cricket Council ( ACC ) , was formed to co @-@ ordinate the Australian Test team . Previously , private entrepreneurs and the players themselves organised international cricket . Lord Sheffield donated money to the ACC , which was used to purchase a trophy for the champion domestic team . Trott appeared in Victoria 's inaugural Sheffield Shield match , against New South Wales in December 1892 . He scored 63 and 70 not out in a winning effort . The ACC appointed Trott as one of the six players to select the touring team for England .
