Comment.

The game has resolved some of Jour difficulties but has added others that one had hardly anticipated, unless we get rain and plenty of As regards the pitch, it seems that it will always be liable to crumble on the second day.

The gamo was resumed at 11.30 yesterday in beautiful weather, albeit a bit hot.. Brace and Pearce opened to W, Hung nt the Naval Tard end, and A. Reid. Zimmern

I see no reason why we bowled Pearce's off stump with an should not have runs down to No. excellent ball which came back and at least. It is the catching that brushed his pad (18-1-12). Reid had wants improving and lots of prae been bowling steadily but the new tice will probably do that. comer, Musson, got him prettily to long leg. and then straight drove him for four. He repeated the shot off Reid's next over but was smart. ly taken a few balls later by An- derson at mid-off from a hard hit (an-1-19).

With 40 add up Wyatt who was subbing for Reynolds went on (by arrangement). He had Hancock dropped at second alip and, appar- ently, at the wicket in his first over, besides putting one ball just over the bails Anderson relieved Hung and might have had the same bats- man taken at first slip but it was a very hard chance and only a very tall and quirk fieldsman would have touched it at all. Both bowl- ed a good length and at 60 Wratt beat and bowled Hancock for 9. At 85 Anderson had very hard linee an he had Brace very well caught Jow down by Owen-Hughes, but the Umpire was apparently unsighted. The catch was clear from the, scare box. Just after the same bataman snacked lncky four between the atumper and first slip. Wyatt, however, bowled him next, over, after a fine atraight drive for four. Zimmern was e and b first ball, playing far too soon (88-5-0). At this juncture Wyatt's analysis was 7.5 over 2 maidens 19 ruha 3 wickets. Twn overs later Curreem hit across; a shortinh one of Anderson, who had bowled excellently, and waS bowled Tiffin. 91 runs in an hour and a half for 6 wickets.

Brighter Batting.

After tifin Mitchell and Stacion resumed to A. Reid and Musson, who went out instead of Wyatt making it rather difficult to report the match intelligibly for those who did not see the game! Stanton had a four and, a six of Reid's first over, but was finely caught by Folley running in from deep mid- wicket. Mitchell bad been batting nicely but at 136 Richardson bowied him with an off break. Parker began to hit about cheerfully. Wyatt was run out owing to a mis- understanding but there was no run his shot which went straight to Goldman at cover.

Bowker came in and also proceeded to hit and the score

rose rapidly. Reynolds relieved Musson but did not bowl as well as usual. Folley went on hat was not very successful, though he might have had Parker e and b at 101. At 104, however, Owen. Hughes went on and had Parker smartly. stamped by Crake for 44. The stand had added 33 Reed stopped for a bit while twenty rans were added and was run out rather unfortunately, with the score

ruos.

The bowling was not nearly se deadly after tiffin but Parker and Bowker hit very gallantly. It ap pears the wicket was faster and took plenty of spin, being definitely of more assistance to the bowlers than on Saturday. After lunch it was kicking a bit at the Law Courts end.

The Second Knock.

Anderson and Fincher restarted at 4 p.m. to Bavker and Reed, and In the Intter's Gret over Anderson was amartly taken at the wicket by Zimmern. After a quiet spell Gold- man, who might have been taken in slips off Reed, was 1b.w. to Bowker" (19-2-7). Just alter Richardson got anusty blow in the face off one of Reed's which spun up very fast, and had to retire. Folley was 1.b.w, to Bowker before scoring (29-3-0), Wyatt. then relieved Bowker and had Masson taken casily at square Jeg. (11-4-2). After an hour's play the score was forty of which Fincher had twenty.

по

On the form yesterday it is by means apparent that Major Crake is better than Pearce behind the sticks. Of course it was only the second time he has kept in the Colony and I believe he has not had much practice recently,
