Total (for 2 wickets) The feature of the opening of the innings was the enterprise of Ponsford, who, in spite of good fielding and four men in the slips for Allen's bowling, first cut him to the boundary and then drove the next ball for a four, to send up the '50' after 70 minutes' bat- ting. He had to fight hard for his runs against smart felding but with a neat glide he reached hie 50.

Immediately after the teams had been presented to His Majesty, Ponsford was taken in the slipe off White's first over. He had batted brilliantly in scoring 81 by splen did strokes all round the wicket, and had helped to add 162 for the flrat wicket. Amongst his best hits were eight 4's, in an innings that lasted for three hours.
