THE TABLES ON

WORCESTERSHIRE

Worcester, May 3.

The South African cricketers completely turned the tables on Worcestershire

Worcestershire had carried their overnight score of 135 runs for four wickets to 192 runs all out this morning.

The South Africans, lost their first five wickets for 25 runs. But the middle batsmen. Van Ryndveld (29), A. Rowan (44) and Mumm (49 not out) prevented à com- plete collapse and the tourists' total reached 157 runs,
