TOWN V. COUNTRY
WELLINGTON CRICKET ANNUAL MATCH DRAWN DONNELLY SCORES 121 (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. The annual Town v. Country cricket match ended yesterday in a draw with the honours all in favour of the Country eleven, who were prevented bytime from hitting up the seven runs they required to win after the Town team had finished their second innings. A feature of Country team’s innings was a stand made by Donnelly and Norris, who put on 118 for the third wicket. Donnelly reached 121 before being run out and once again proved that lie is as accomplished a batsman as the Dominion has produced. Scores: — COUNTRY. —First Innings. M. ]’.
