THE CHINA MAIL, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1952,
The Australians Gave Themselves 98 Minutes
To Dismiss Civilians
ว
OVER-ESTIMATE CAME UP TO 14 MINUTES
By "The Zombie"
Hongkong had its first real taste of the combined might of Jack Chegwyn's team of Australian Test and State cricketers yesterday and, though delightful to the spectators, the dish served up was none too pleasant for the Hongkong Civilian team who lost the one-day match by
418 runs.
*
The Hongkong team began promisingly when some brilliant bowling by Francis Zimmern claimed him two wickets-no less important than those of Morris and De Courcey-with the total standing at only 11 runs. Gradually, however, the third wicket partnership of Flockton and Carrol sent the fielders into a merry chase of the leather and at lunch time 258 was up on the board, Carrol being run out after scoring 104 and Flockton still undefeated at 121.
