M.C.C. TEAM'S TOUR POVERTY BAY MATCH IPke United Press Association.] GISBORNE. February 12. A moderate westerly breeze was the only factor which prevented conditions being perfect for the resumption of the match between Poverty Bay and Marylehone. Having declared yesterday at 5 o’clock for 206, the visitors proceeded to dismiss the local team for 105, but this morning, instead of forcing the follow-on, they sportingly elected _to bat again. M.C.C. changed its batting order to enable the tailenders to have a.strike, and the result was that for a start wickets fell quickly. Holmes, the captain, was the first to go, and after Lyttelton and Read had made a short stand four wickets fell for the addition of 50 runs. Human and Hardstaff, however, stopped the rot, the pair attacking the Poverty Bay slow howlers and bringing the century up after 70 minutes’ play. The score at lunch was 114 for five wickets (Holmes 7, Lyttelton 27, Read 19, Powell 9, Mitchell-lnnes 9, Human not out 29, Hardstaff not out 16).
