BIG PARTNERSHIP WITH MACFARLANE (Our Own Correspondent).
(By Telegraph, Copyright. Telegraphic Alenanges - Ordinance, 1947 Received, July
Sidmouth, June 30, Hongkong Nomads brought their official tour to a close to- day with a decisive win over Sidmouth in a one-day match, scoring 170 for 6 in reply to the home team's 120.
J. E. Richardson and Lieut. Macfarlane were the personali ties of the match. In a second wicket partnership which realis- ed over 10 runs, they hit off the Sidmouth aggregate, and for the rest it was just a batting prac- tise.
Sidmouth collapsed sensational- ly after lunch. Up to that, time they had scored 67 for three wie- kets and looked good enough to amassa, total sufficient to pre- vont Hongkong from winning.
But after the adjournment, they went to pieces, the remaining seven wickets falling for an addi- tional 53 runs.
CAVALIER TREATMENT.
The Nomads, after losing E. J. R. Mitchell when he had scored nine, treated the Sid- mouth attack In cavaller fashion, and Richardson, and Macfarlane became associated in' a prolific partnership. Macfarlane was a trifle unfor- tunate to lose his wicket when seven short of the half contury, but he had already made victory in certainty for the Nomade.
Richardson continued to dis- play great form, and scoring freely on both sides of the wicket, as well as with some neat leg glances and late cuts reached 82 before losing his .wicket.
It was Richardson's most enter- taining display of the tour, the Civil Service batsman being in his happicet mood.
Donald Anderson surprised everyone by being sent back for a "duck," and after this the Nomads just played out time, with Baker scoring a dozen and Sayor five. Beck wns not out with six to his credit.
