Rain disrupts tour match
(N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) SYDNEY. Rain disrupted the touring New Zealand schoolboys cricket match against Waverley yesterday, only 150 minutes play being possible on the first day. Waverley, put in to bat, had scored 78 for four at the close, the early batsmen finding extreme difficulty in scoring against a hostile attack. The opener, R. Williams, took B 0 minutes to make six, and only 17 runs were scored in the first hour from 12 overs.
S. Lewis, a fast leftarm bowler, bowled extremely wen, sending down 10 overs at a cost of only 18 runs, during which he took two wickets.
