Going in first the Indians rau up 103 rong. Civil červice opened badly, 4 wickets going down for 10 runs. By vigorous bitting Tacchi made 25 (including four) the home team ultimately being sikont for 22., thereby saissing an opportunity of obtaining their firet win in the league. By their win, Indions now head the league Laving 1 point more than the Police with one game in hand.
Flaying the Police to a draw, the Sappere seriously impaired their chances of winning the second league championship. Opening antely, the R. E. batsmen made a good start, but the tail was weak. Pearson made 40 and Redpath, hitting 2 dixes and 6 fours, stored 18; the ionings being. declared at 133 for 8 wirkets.
