Play opened in broiling weather this morning, with the wicket show- ing no signs of wear. New South Wales, whose second innings over- night total was 122 for four wickets, still required 208 runs to avoid an inning's defent. The champions' hope was S. G. Barnes, the young Test batsman. Barnes gave a great display, and carried his overnight total of 75 to 121 hefore being caught behind the wicket.
