land,
Though Dowes could not prevent the MCC being headed on first fanings his display must have lifted his own morale and that of other young members of the side. His success was well deserved. With Cyril Wash- brook he carried the overnight fourth wicket stand to 178 but with his score at 50 he had an attack of cramp which forced him to retire for treatment.
Ho resumed when six men were out for 200 and 100 runs were required för a first inninga Icad.
By this time Washbrook, who carried the burden of the side on his shoulders for nearly Ava hours in making 80 out of 180, had been dismissed.
