Coates as lead, and Beer, No. 3. played up to Interport standard; while Baza, No. 2, was mediocro.
The Singles Champion of Shanghal, Sequeira, was remarkably worrying to Omar. Smith, No. 2, improved as tho play developed; but Harvey, No. 3, was weak throughout.
Hongkong added three shots during the early stages of the rain to equalise the score.
Before a large crowd, with ominous clouds and threatening rain, the game commenced.
