At Pokfulam, the D.B.S. defeated the Hong Kong University by 20 rums, in the last over.

After getting 6 wickets down for 49, the school boys appeared to be winning with plenty of time to spare, but a bad spell of fielding in which runs were given away and catches dropped caused the game' to be prolonged until the last possible moment
