VICTORIA v,' NEW SOUTH WALES.
(UNITED. PRESS ASSOCIATION.—COPYRIGHT.)
SYDNEY, 27th January.
For ths continuation of the Sheffield Shield match, Victoria v. New South Wales, the weather was fine and the wicket faster than on the first day. The remaining five Victorian batsmen made a very poor showing, collapsing before the bowling of Scott and Mailey and the much improved field work. .New South Wales opened badly, Bardsley going at 7. Then Collins, playing very cautiously, and Macartney, slashing and brilliant, were in partnership, adding 111. Macartney was badly missed early in the innings. The following three wickets fell quickly, then Kippax joined Collins and stopped the rot Collins played one of his pluckiest innings. Kippax and Hendry played a sound, forceful innings. The Victorians tried all their bowling talent, and the fielding was very keen. Victoria, first innings, 353, (Park 66, Willis 42). Scott took three wickets for 83, Mailey' three for 93. New South Wales has lost six wickets for 291 (Collins 106, Macartney 65, Kippax not out 60, Hendry not out 25).
