At the lunch-interval, McCabe and O'Brien had each obtained one run, the board showing 07 for 3.

Splendid Batting.

An effort to retrieve the disas trous start was made by McCabe and O'Brien in the early afternoon, They faced the bowling confidently and scored with remarkable freedom having regard to the position. **
