Whirlwind Knock By Mann
London, May 26.
Glorious sunshine and crowds estimated at nearly 100,000 marked the second day of the Whitsun holiday cricket programme of ten first class matches.
Apart from an
exhilirating batting display by Norman Mann, South African, who in a whirl- wind knock at Cardiff hit 97 runs in 55 min- utes, there were many fine batting perform- ances. The best was that of the young Surrey colt, D.G.W. Fletcher, who made 192 not out against Notts. He drove all round the wicket with great confidence.
