Hollidge, promoted for the first time to going in 1st wicket, opened confidently with a 3ne foreing shot off his first ball for 4 runs through the covers. It was an excellent stroke played off his back leg, and only fine bit of fielding by Young- saye prevented a similar shot from reaching the boundary.
