C.C.C. v. INDIAN R.C. "A".
Set with 124 runs to win at Happy Valley, the Indian R.C. "A". reputed to be a strong batting aide, could only compile 98 runs for the loss of five wickets, in the making of which they took 90 minutes.
The Craigengower C.C. started confidently, the opening batsmen scoring at a rapid rate. The first wicket partnership between Lim (24) and Kitchell (44) renilsed 54 runs but wickets fell rather cheap- ly afterwards, the total being 123. Curreem, who took 4 wickets for 21 runs was the most successful bowler.
