Sydney, Nov. 14.
The MCC made an attempt to get 311 runs for a victory in two and three quarter hours against New South Wales on the final day of their match here today, but they were always behind the clock and the game was drawn. When rain and bad light stopped play for the day an hour and a quarter before time, the MCC had scored 148 for two wickets in their second innings and still required 168 runs.
