COMMENT.
THE FULL SCORES.
THE CHINA MAIL
Comment on the match played on May 28 and 29, in which the Hong- kong Interport cricket team lost to: Malaya by an innings, is given fülly in the Singapore papers to hand late yesterday afternoon.
Malaya's total of 883 is the largest acore put together by a Malayan side since the visit to Hongkong in 1997, and the largest aggregate of the interport series since Hongkong knocked up 317 against Shangha! in 1912.``
Since the Arst interport between Shanghai and Hongkong some sixty years ago, Hongkong's score of 36 is a low record.
Bostock-Hill's taking 9 wickets
for 10 runs is also probably a re

Fortune smiled on Malaya in winning the toss and also because, had some of the catches that were offered been accepted, the total must certainly have fallen far short of what it eventually realised, For example, Hamilton was twice missed, at 12 (missed by Wartara at mid-off) and again at 91 (an easy chance to Sayer) expensive mis takes, Malaya made a bad start. Both Bowker and Reed required careful playing and runs slowly, the first half hour seeing only 24 on the board.

Armitage offered two possible chances (one a difficult catch in the slips, J. D. Humphreys falling),
Reed had 8 men on the "off" at one time.
James was badly missed in the 33 long-heid by Reed.

Ramsay was out to 6 bad stroke off a ball which came up rather more than the others. He had batted attractively for an hour and 25 minutes, hitting seven boundaries. Hancock batted vigorously but Rhodes saved", a lot of runs on the boundary. The Hongkong captain showed a parti cular liking for Armitage,
Hancock was caught at cover-
point. Warters was finely caught in the alips

Balhatchet spent an uncomfort able, ten minutes against de Vitre before being out to a very bad stroke, lifting a ball on the off neatly into Huggins' hands when he himself was past the wicket..
