The fourth and last cricket match between the touring M.C.C. team and New Zealand was continued to-day at Lancaster Park in brilliantly fine weather. In its first innings, New Zealand made 334. At stumps M.C.C., in its second* innings, had made 142 for the loss of two wickets. The visitors’ batting was very dull and stodgy, the kind which gets the game into disfavour with the spectators. Near the end: the spectators barracked very loudly and one man walked on to the field, where he spoke to , Cromb. Apparently he made a bargain with him, and left the field as a constable came to remove him. Roberts and Blundell opened the New Zealand attack, each bowling very well. However, Cromb was the only one to get a wicket. Griffiths was erratic but occasionally very tricky. Barber was very unfortunate, as he slipped when turning back to the crease, and Elmes, with a good return, found him well out. Details are:— M.C.C.
