-CRICKET INTERPORT.

COMING CONTEST WITH

... SHANGHAL

།

"

Commenting UI Shanghai's interport cricket prospects the Shanghai Times says:-

As the Police have withdrawn "from" the League the Recs will be much strengthened by the inclu- sion of Jimmy Quayle in their side, but the absence of Torry Wilson, who is going on furlough, will be a great loss. Quayle is a splendid all-round cricketer; he is considered one of the hardest hit ters In Shanghai, and when in form he is equally at home with the ball. At times he is erratic, but occasionally he is deadly with the leather and still maintafos his reputation of being the best local fast bowler With Quayle on the Rec's side the Cricket Club will have to look to their laurels if they wish to win this season's honours.
