CRICKET.
INTERPORT TRIAL
It is presumably correct to open any hecount of a match with a reference to the weather and to the attendance, if one wishes to keep within traditional limits. Very well then in the beautiful weather (this is true) before an enthusiastic audience (I counted seven myself), yet another Interport trial commenced on Saturday, Hayward's side went in Aras and Ramsay and Madar,went in. Bowker and Owen Hughes, at the Law-Courts end opened the boiling. In the latter's second over Indar put one to first slip but Hancock, for unce, dropped what scemed torbe an cagy zhánce. "After that neither bowler appeared to be bowling sery well until with 40 on the board Bowker seemed to find his length. "He clean beat Madar three times running: The first time the ball went just'over the leg Bail and rebounded from Ismail's gloves on to the 'wieket. Msalar, made tracks for the pavilion but was very pro- perly brought back. It was quite clear, from the scoring box at all events, that. he was not out. From this point Bowker? Boemed to find his length and bowled very well. He had been very much off before. Ramsay touched a fast one on the off and Hancock made amends by taking him magnifiently with one hand at first slip. Rumjahn succeeded and sick. ed his first ball for four just between Haneack and Owen Hughes. The new. comer shaped very badly and after a somewhat scratchy couple of overa, he anicked an off one from Cantrell, whe had relieved Owen Hughes, very hard and Hughes at second slip took a magni. ficent catch left-handed high up. These two catches relieved the monotony of sodie pretty poor ground fielding. throwing in to the wicket in particular was perfectly dreadful in
The
most cases.
The scoring slowed down at this period and Summers went on for Bowker. A little later on, after Madar had been batting an hour and ten minutes for twenty runs, he retired. He should have been out at the very beginning of his ianings.
Dobbie then came in and aided by some very poor bowling proceeded to take tea with the oppositoin. Morris, hit very well indeed hooking excellently ar taking four off practically every loose ball. Dobbie also showed at once that he was a real bat. and for a happy space one began to feel that we really had some batting in Hongkong. Wales and Bowker resuined but the hitting went on easily the best cricket we have scen this year. With 138 the board Morris retired with an uncommonly, nicë 44 to his credit made by "Crisp hitting. all round the wicket. Dobbie whilst hitting the boose ones very hard, showed very good defence especially against Bowker whose length improved later, He continued to play excellent cricket until the innings was declared withoa: further lows for 181. Lightfoot had had little of the bowling and was not out i

The worst feature of Saturday's cricket was perhaps the fielding. The throwing in on the whole was not good, and there was a good deal of slowness in getting down to the ball and also of stopping it with the feet. This may be excused in stout and elderly old gentlemen who write for the papers, but not in possible Interport players.
