NEW ZEALANDERS AGAIN SHOW GOOD BOWLING FORM
Taunton, May 28.
The New Zealand cricketers, who have only one more match before the First Test against England, again showed good bowling form today when they dismissed Somerset for 11B on the first day of their match here.
Tony MacGibbon the pace bowler broke the back of the Somerset innings with a spell of four
wickets for five runs in six overs to finish with
four for 19 and John Alabaster, the legspinner, ran through the tail for figures of four for 32. The New Zealand batsmen, wickets had fallen for 50 runs, who are also steadily showing Reld signs of improvement, pressed home the advantage scoring 105 for four wickets to lead by 77 runs with six wickels in hand ot the close.
John Reid, the New Zealand captain, was not out with 10, his unbroken fith wicket peat- nership with Trevor Meale (32) having realised 77.
