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.

I rather gather that will pay on the Shanghal ground.
THE LESSONS
As these notes, which are being written on Sunday morning before the Interport trial 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 does make the opening batsmen a bit of a problem but I should not be surprised if Pearce makes the ex- periment of sending in Garthwaile with Colledge. The former has settled down to a very sound bat who watches the ball, does not fick at them on the off, and has patience— all qualities which are necessary in opening batsmen.
