The absence of Balaskas was also a handicap, so that it was not sur- prising when, facing a total of 512, to their 312 in the first innings, they reached 305 for nine, and
spent the whole afternoon in get ting them.
剅
Play ended at 25 minutes to six. immediately the deserving Gunn, by aggressive and defensive cricket, well blended, completed his first century of the season, and the South Africans. did not bat again. What a pity that a Axture which had promised so much achieved 80 little.
The South African mammoth of an innings had the briefest of tails, nor did it wag to any purpose, and the three outstanding batsmen were back in the pavilion in next to no time when play was continu- ed at 496 for seven. Wade's grand knock-four hours, 21 boundaries was. ended in Larwood's first over to a slip catch at 499. Crisp crack- ed Larwood and Voce once each to the boundary, and then Langton bad, his "middle stump" uprooted. also by Larwood.
