With a harder and fuster wicket on Monday, every one expected Hongkong to make amends for the paucity of their first inninga re- suit by piling up a fairly big score; but again the opening batsmen failed more or less, and four good wickets were down for less than 60 runs. Again did twe, and two- only, of their players make most. of the runs-Morris and Har greaves, but even with these two ET making 81 between them. the whole side was almost scuttled out for 127.
