EXHILARATING CRICKET

WELLINGTON SCORES 413 AGAINST OTAGO BRILLIANT CENTURY TO BADCOCK LAST WICKET PUTS ON 123 RUNS The spectators at the Basin Reserve on Saturday were treated to as dashing a display of rapid scoring as has been seen for some seasons past. In reply to Wellington’s first innings of 363, Otago compiled 269, towards which Galland hit a breezy 74. With six wickets down for 79 in Wellington’s second knock, Otago appeared to be getting a grip upon the game, but a spirited stand by Badcock and Dustin added 120 for the seventh wicket, the professional contributing a brilliant century. The Wellington tail wagged furiously, Brice and Massey adding 69 for the ninth wicket, and Massey and Beard rattling on 123 for the last wicket in less than an hour. Wellington’s second innings realised 413, which means that Otago to-day is faced with the formid- . able task of endeavouring to get 508 runs to win the match.

Cherry 657) and Alloo (50 resumed Otago's first innings .with four wickets down for 157, in reply to Wellington’s opening knock of 363, at 11.30 on Saturday morning. Tho weather was sultry, with sun and clouds struggling for mastery. McGirr and Massey took up the bowling. With the total at 167. Massey clean bowled Cherry with a beautiful ball which swung in from the off. The retiring batsman had shaped very soundly for his 65, which included, seven boundary shots. He had assisted Alloo to add 107 for the fifth wicket at a critical period. 167—5 —65. Galland came next, and opened by slamming McGirr to tlio sight-screen. Otago Captain Falls L.B.W. At 182, Lambert relieved McGirr. In .Massey’s sixteenth over there was a confident appeal for a catch at the wickets off Alloo. It did not matter greatly, however, as the Otago captain was given out l.b.w. to Massey’s next ball, zklloo had given a sound display for his 58, hitting live tourers. 188 —6 —58. Massey had now taken five wickets for 36 runs off sixteen overs. Elmes was the next batsman, and was unhappy to Lambert’s slows. After poking about for some time for a single, ho stepped in front of a straight ono. 201—7 —1. Douglas joined Galland, and was very nearly caught first ball, Airey making a dive and taking the ball close in at silly point. Umpire Bock, however, ruled' in tlio batsman’s favour. Galland Hits Out. Galland was batting with confidence, and twice banged Massey to the on boundary. After bowling twenty overs for 5G runs and five wickets, Massey gave way to Badcock, but Galland welcomed the change, banging the Englishman over the boundary’ at lung-on. At 220, Board relieved Lambert, but Galland son ran into the forties, and then quickly ran to his half-century. The Otago man continued to delight the small crowd with his fearless hitting. He lifted ono from Beard over the fence at square-leg for six, ten coming from the over.

At 248, a double bowling change was macle, Brice relieving Badcock and McGirr taking the ball from Beard. After stonewalling tor half-a-dozen, Brice tempted Douglas with slows, and tlio left-hander spooned, one softly into Rainey’s hands in tho slips. 262 —B—6.8 —6. Tlie veteran Torrance joined Galland who was 68, and opened by off-driving McGirr for four. Tho innings closed with Tattcrsall snapping Galland up behind tho wickets off Brice. Galland had given the brightest batting display of the match in hitting tip his scoro of 70, which included one sixer and eight fourers. Eastman was unable to bat for Otago. Massey again proved by far the best of the Wellington bowlers. In all he sent clown twenty overs for 5G Tuns, and secured five wickets, keeping a good length throughout and swinging tho ball in puzzling fashion. Brice showed sound judgment in using slows, and was much more dangerous with these than with his medium-paced deliveries. He secured two for 18 of 6-4 deliveries. None of the other bowlers troubled the Otago men. Tattersail was not up to concert pitch with tho gloves, allowing 21 byes and four leg-byes. A Disastrous Start. With a lead of 94 on the first innings, Tatlersall and Airey commenced Wellington’s second innings at 12.11, loi;lance and Alloo taking up the bowling. , Play was painfully slow, three singles coming up in the eight overs sent down before the luncheon adjournment. Upon resuming at 2.15, play continued slow to accurate bowling by Alloo and Torrance. Off Alloo’s first SIX overs, only one single came. There were nine maiden overs out of the first thirteen sent clown. It was as serious as the start of a test Match unlimited to time. . . u, After scratching for 40 minutes for 8 luns, Tattersail was snapped up behind the crickets by Galland off Torrai c-e. I'4—l—B. Great Work by Otago Wicketkeeper. Lamason, who had given such a bright display in the first innings, camo next. Airey did not long survive Tattersail, as, alter being at the wickets lor 47 minutes for 10, he, too, was taken by Galland behind the sticks off Torrance, who had now two crickets for 15 runs. Reaney arrived to see Galland claim his third victim behind the wickets, tho Otago stumper neatly taking Lainasou off Alloo, who secured Ins first wicket after having sent down 03 deliveries for G runs. 21 3—3. Lambert joined the Napier colt, and brightened the dreary proceedings someAlloo, who was bowling like a machine, then clean bowled Lambert, who had scored 18. The Otago captain had now taken two for 11 oft fouiteen overs. 41 —4—lB. . Badcock followed, to seo Barney, who had been at the wickets a long time for four singles, get the first fours;- oil Alloo in his sixtenth over with a cover hit. Badcock Hashed Alloo past cover to the fence in the next over, bringing 50 in sight, and Ramey then hit the Otago captain for four to midou. the ball vaulting tho fence. After sending down soyojitcon oveis for 34 runs and two wickets, lorranco gave wav to Knight, and Alloo. "ho had taken two wickets ior -6 runs off seventeen overs, tossed the ball to D ?\fter S ’reaching 20’. Reaney, who had shaped well for a colt, was snapped up behind tho wickets off Knight, lna k ,ll -> tho fourth catch which the Otago wicketkeener had taken. 79—6—20. McGirr came and went- enusht anl bowled first ball by Knight. <9-7-0.

A Splendid Stand. Dustin joined Badgjck. who was 22, and the score was taken to 90 mostly by the enterprise of the Englishman who was bailing well. Jho hundie 1 came up for 104 minutes play, Badcock claiming 44 of (ho total. Iho professional reached his Im f-ccutury in 66 minutes. He continued to play brigli and lively cricket, hitting a footer and a sixer in Alloo’s twenty-first over. Al the tea adjournment. (ho total was 110 for six wickets. Badcock being 67 and Dustin 14. (he partnership having almost doublet! the score. .

On resuming at 4.17, Hio pair continued tn score steadily. Badcock quickly ran into the eighties, and aroused enthusjasm bv lifting Douglas for six with a fine on-drive, which brought Id) up. rhe partnership had added 100 exactly, having carried the score from 79 to 179.

Badcock Reaches His Century. Applause broke out from all round tho ground when Badcock reached Lis century in 109 minutes. His brilliant innings was brought to a close soon afterwards through /Alloo catching and bowling him off the next, delivery. He hit two sixers and ten fourers, and I is display was the brightest innings of the match. The partnership had added 120 for the seventh wicket. 199 —7—loB. “Sixer” Brief. Brice came next, and smacked fourers off Douglas and Alloo. Elmes came on, and the Wellington captain lifted hiuj over the long-on boundary for six, and banged him up against the pickets at long-off, quickly reaching the twenties. Dustin drove Knight to tho sight screen bringing. 280 up. Brice soon overhauled Dustin, who had had an hour’s start of him. Ho then liften Torrance over the ropes at squareleg for six, uashed him past cover for four, and banged him to tho boundary at extra long-on, 14 coming from the over. This gave Brice his half-century iu 28 minutes. After playing very patiently for 45, Dustin was bowled by Alloo. The colt hit four fourers and played very soundly when Wellington were in a bad position. Ho helped Badcock to add 120 for the seventh wicket, and assisted Brice to put on 69 for the eighth wicket. 268—8—45. Another Good Stand. Brico was then partnered by Massey, and tbo score was taken to 270, which meant that Otago’s first innings’, total had been passed and that tho visitors would require over 360 to get to win. Tho Wellington captaiu then hit a ball into the hands of Cherry at deep mid-on. Brice hit three sixers and seven fourers iu rattling on Dis score of <l9, and received a well-deserved ovation as he came in. 290 —9 —69. Sensational Last-Wicket Stand. Board, the last man, joined Massey and lifted Douglas over the fence in front of the stand for 6, a spectator making a neat catch. Massey continued to score freely off Alloo. Ho was just as severe on Knight, who relieved Douglas. Beard then hit another sixer in front of the stand, bringing 350 up. Beard raised applause by hitting his third sixer off Torrance—a lusty drive to long-on. There was more applause when tho partnership bad added 100 runs for tho last wicket. Beard reached his half-century by hitting Elmes to long-off for 4 and lifting him on to tho track at long-on for 6. This brought tho fourth hundred up. Tho end came at G. 50, when Massey returned one to Elmes. He had batted very brightly for his 64, which included eight fourers.. Beard was left not out with CO to his credit. Tho Hutt man gave a most exhilarating display, hitting four sixers and five fourers. He and Massey put on 123 for the last wicket in Tess than an hour, scoring at the rate of over two runs a minute. About .£l2O was taken at tho gates on Saturday and .£5O on Friday. The match will be concluded to-day, play starting at 11 a.m. and finishing at 6 p.m. in order to allow the southerners to catch the ferry steamei- to-night. DETAILED SCORES OTAGO—First Innings. A.

SHEFFIELD SHIELD

SOUTH WALES

PLUNKET SHIELD CANTERBURY IN GOOD POSITION BUT GAME MAY TURN EITHER WAY AUCKLAND COLT AND MERRITT BOWL WELL BY Telegraph.—press association. Auckland, January 8. Although Canterbury is leading Auckland on the first innings, the Plunket Shield game may turn cither way. Yesterday morning Auckland carried the overnight score to 198, leaving the visitors 46 in the lead. However, due to fine bowling by the colt, G. L. Weir, the visitors were dismissed for 251, and Auckland scored 8 without loss before an appeal made against the light was upheld. Auckland now need 290 for victory. Sensational Onening. Plav opened sensationally this morning. ” Mills was given not out from an ap'peal for caught behind off Merritt’s first ball, although he admitted afterwards that he hit it. Then Read struck his length, and interspersing offspinners with tho ball swinging away, got three Auckland batsmen caught off shots behind wicket. Ho bowled excellently. Matheson threw his wicket away in trying to hook a googly from Merritt, and the innings closed for 19S. Canterbury’s Second Innings.

After a promising start, Hamilton once again lost his wicket through a fondness for scoring on the leg side. Dacre handled the attack well, and tour of the best wickets fell for under 100 runs. Then Jacobs assisted the captain in improving the position, and following a partnership between Page and Nixon put a different complexion on tho game. Page batted soundly, scoring well with forcing shots round to leg and leaving the off theory well alone. Nixon’s strong driving was most refreshing, but he got himself out through going for a big hit off a good length ball. Something in the nature of a find has been made in G. L. Weir, who took four wickets for 48 runs in 23 overs. At present he is bowling a little short, and on a fast, true wicket it should bo easy to hook him but a good ball is a good ball, and that with which Newman was bowled off his pads fully deserved the wicket. It would not bo surprising to see this young bowler succeed against ’Wellington on the Basin Reserve. Matheson put a lot of firo into his deliveries and sent down some good bails. Dacre handled the attack well in the absence of Allcott. He is the only left-hand bowler in the team, and should put himself on more frequently. To-day’s Premiss. Interesting cricket is promised on Alonday. Auckland will have to start the innings afresh and the game will resolve into a trial of strength. Between the batting of Bowley, Mills, Dacre and Gillespie, and the fine Canterbury attack of Merritt, Newman and Read, even now it is anybody's game, but Canterbury will be unlucky to lose.

Tucker) on Saturday picked the following strong eleven to represent Wellington against Otago in the Plunket Shield match, commencing at Dunedin ou January 29;—\v. S. Brice (Petone), captain, 1. C ' Lowry, R. de R. Worker (Hawke’s Bav) E H. L. Berman (Wanganui), C. S. Dempster. H. Foley. H.B -Massey (Institute), K. C. James, 11. M. Lambert (Old Boys), J. S. Taylor (Nelson), H. M. McGirr (Hutt). • The team is probably the strongest which has ever represented Wellington at any period of its cricket history, being exceptionally sound m batting strength. The presence of .1. S. lay lor, the Nelson professional, and h. de K. Worker strengthens an already formidable batting sidfe, which should be strong enough to defeat Otago, oven though the Southerners will be greatly strengthened by the presence of such able players as Blunt, Dickinson, Shepherd and Duncan.
