Guy was out two balls later, and afterwards it was found his cheekbone was fractured in three places. BOTTOM: The Wellington batsman, L. C. Butler, has a resigned look on his face as he sees his wicket thrown down by an accurate return by B. A. Bolton. Butler had batted well for 16 with an injured hand and leg.
