Ricketts, Pereira and Garthwaite are the bowlers on whom Hong Kong now depend for victory, and they are unlikely to fail us, with the wicket in their favour. The spin of the coin and 1 Stokes dismissal before the close of play on Saturday, are likely
to prove the deciding factors in the game..
The wicket is likely to get worse with every minute to-day: and unless Shanghai pass the 300 mark, which is doubtful, there seems little hope of a Northern victory.
