SHANGHAI LOSE AFTER

A GOOD START

Good Bowling Backed Up By Splendid Fielding

A TEAM OF FLAG-COLLECTORS

The two glorious weeks during which King Cricket ruled supreme was brought to an end on the Hong Kong Cricket Club ground yesterday when Malaya beat Shanghai in the last of the series of interport matches by 70 runs, thus winning all their games here, haying previously beaten Hong Kong, the United Services and Kowloon..

It was an excellent achievement and for their win Malaya have Willis to thank as their bowler was keeping'an almost per- fect length throughout Shanghai's innings.

The Shanghai batting was not bad, but they had to contend with Malaya's bowlers at their best and on a wicket which was to their liking, and it was this good bowling." backed up by some excellent fielding that proved to be Shanghai's undoing.

WILSON'S SIXTEEN OFF THREE HITS

Stakes and Mayhew went out to open the innings for 'Shanghal at 11.05 am.. the wicket then looking as though it had improved over- night. Wulis and Gill opened the al.ack

for Malaya and after careful opening." the pair, settled down to play bright cricket, runs coming at a very respectable rate, but with the score at 39, Stokes had the misfortune of playing one from Willis on to his wicket. Play had then been in progress for 31 minutes during which time Stokes made 28 runs.

Madar joined Mayhew and these two brought the total to 53 when the latter tried to hit Jonklass and gave a catch to Eu Chow Tiek who took it in great fashion Mayhew during his 'played good cricket stay of 44 minutes at the wickets

The rate of scoring may be guaged when it is said that the Afty was reached in 45 minutes. but after this things slackened

TORRY'S MERRY KNOCK

Sinclair went in to join Simpson who filled the breach when Isaacs was out and the new comer was lucky to find the boundary when he put Willis just over slips

The

next over saw more disaster be- fall Shanghai for after Simpson had played Gill carefully for Ave balls, he put up the simplest re- turn to the bowler of the last one and Gill took the catch to make the score read 89-8-0.

Shanghai's hopes were centred round Torry Wilson when he went in to join Sinclair who sent up the❘ ninety with a single. Would Torry rise to the occasion? He began by showing that he was not in the least perturbed by the way things

were going against his side and Opened his score in confident style when he got Willisaway for a& single, Then

Sinclair adopted

more aggressive methods and sent Wills to the boundary twice of

successive balls. It was the only

game to play under the circum- stances," and more power to him for not being afraid to hit the bowling, and hit it hard.

Torry then faced Gili and after playing two balls carefully, he had

For it was as a half-back that he made his name. and fame. Indeed, I believe Keenor was the inspiration of a classic remark made by a lady spectator who knew little about the game.
