Indeed had it not been for these two, the total would have teen a poor one, for the remainder did little and the innings closed for 173. . i The Warehousemen commenced their second innings with a deficit of 88. The bowling of Robertson and Pearce appeared too good to do much with, and though moat of the batsmen made a few, they failed to save the innings defeat. The fielding all round was good.
