INTERPORT CRICKET NAZARIN SHOWS FINE FORM
"One Of The Best Innings I Have Seen For Many A Long Day"
(By R. Abbit)
The second Interport trial match started on Satur- day last in warm weather--though it was a little cooler than the week before-on a wicket which seemed very excellent. Most of the talent was put in T. A. Pearce's side and Hayward, Mackay and Nazarin helped out the
rest.
E. Zimmern and Mackay opened and Garthwalte bowled his in- Court awinigers from the Supreme End. Zimmern was lucky to get liim away for two between back- ward short leg and the man just in In fact it seemed front of square.

THE LESSONS
As these notes, which are being written on Sunday morning before the Interpart tried at K.C.C., will not appear in print until Monday by which time I believe the Interport side will be chosen I will not indulge in any long speculations..
It is fairly clear Nazarin, Gosano and Colledge have played themselves into the side and whether the Arst named can be made into an opening batsman with Colledge or whether Mackay will go as well I don't know. On form Mackay is hardly worth his place, and I have heard it suggested that Pereira may not be played-the Shanghai wicket being rather against a fast bowler with a low delivery. Hayward cannot go and Alee Pearce is to captain the side.

Once more perfect weather favoured the cricket when the third Interport trial was played yesterday, and the K.C.C. ground was at its best. Pearce's side-obviously a tentative Interport XI batted first. W. C. Hung was ill and unable to play for the Rest, which team included Hayward, Owen-Hughes, Elvin, Perry and Goodwin, in addition to the two Lees, Neve, Tufnell, E. Zimmern and Mackay.
