Ashby next hit Lankham for 2 to leg, and Watson made a fine square leg for 4 off Gill. Ashby now made a splendid cut through the far boundary, and put up a skyer to long leg but was missed—9o now appeared. Ashby got home on Gill for 3. Arneil relieved Gill at the north end and Ashby hit his second ball a tremendous wipe to square leg through the boundary —IOO up. Ashby next put Arneil hard to square log, and then hit him hard to long off, for which 6 was run, owing to 2 by overthrows—lXo up. Ashby lifted Lankham for 2. Barton now took the ball instead of Arneil, and Dufaur relieved Lankham —120 was by this time signalled. Ashby was now hitting freely, but the field was placed very deep for him, consequently many of his big hits fetched but 1 or 2. Watson hit Dufaur hard for 4 to the off—

130 up. Robinson took up the bowling at the north end, and off his second ball Ashby was caught in the deep field by Tonks, who was fielding for Yates. Ashby had made a fine hard-hitting innings of 49, 135—4—49. The vacancy was filled by Fowke, who took the remainder of Robinson’s over without scoring. Lankham relieved Dufaur with the ball. Three maidens followed. Watson hit Robinson to leg for 3—140 up. Three byes, and Watson hit Robinson to leg for 3, and Fowke did the same —150 up. Fowke snicked Lankham for 3, and the next over Fowke played a ball from Robinson back into the bowler’s hand—ls5 —5—7. Watson still remained at the wicket, having made 52 in first-rate style and without having given a chance. The following is the Canterbury score as far as their second innings has gone.

THIS DAY. More beautiful weather for cricket than it was this morning it would be difficult to imagine. At noon punctually the Auckland men went out into the field, showing the Canterbury men an exceedingly good example. Watson, with 52 to his credit, was at one wicket, and Ollivier at the other, the latter having a man to run for him. Robinson bowled one ball to finish an uncompleted over, and Lankham bowled a maiden. Gill then took up the bowling from the north end, and Ollivier cut him for one. In the next over of Lankham, Ollivier was missed in the slips. After a few singles Watson’s time had arrived. In hitting at one of Gill’s he sent it into the slips where it was secured very neatly by Lankham. His innings of 52 was an excellent performance in every way, being without a chance. 158 —C—s2. Harman now came to the wicket, and hit Gill prettily to the on for a single. In the next over, however, he put one from Lankham in the slips which Arneil took with one hand. 159 —7 —l. Barnes was the next man in, and poked Gill away to leg for 3, and Lankham to fine leg for 2. But the latter revenged himself by levelling his stumps the next ball—l 65 —B—s.8—5. Frith now appeared at the wicket, but was bowled in the first over he received from Lankham — 165—9—0. Fuller, the last man, next came to the wickets. Ollivier lifted Gill for 4 through the boundary, and drove him for;2 —170 up. Fuller next cut Lankham for 3, and the next over Ollivier drove Lankham finely for 5. Puller made one to leg oil the same bowler—lßo up. Fuller, however, the next over skyed one from Gill, which was secured by mid-on. The innings thus closed for a total of ISO. Ollivier carried out his bat for a wellearned 13. The last five wickets of Canterbury had fallen in forty-five minutes for 25 runs. The following is the score :

At 1.25 the Canterbury men went into the field, Messrs Barton and Bobinson going to the wickets. The Aucklanders had 149 to make to win, and it was generally felt that the chances were about even. Wilding took the first over, and at his second ball Barton was caught smartly at the wicket —o—l—o.0 —I—o. Arneil filled the gap. Frith bowled the other end, and three singles came off his first over, but on the last ball Arneil was given out leg before—3—2 —1. Yates was the next man. Bobinson put Wilding away to log for 2, and for 2 past third man. Two maidens succeeded, in one of which Bobinson snicked a ball, which hit the wicket keeper hard on the shoulder. A few singles followed, both batsmen playing very carefully, when Bobinson was bowled by Frith off his pads—lo—3—s. Blair was the next man in, and, after a few more singles had been made, the luncheon adjournment took place. Throe wickets down for 14 runs was an unexpected sensation for the Canterbury men. After lunch Frith bowled a maiden, and off the second ball of Wilding’s Yates was sharply snapped up by Fowke at the wickets —14—I—3.1 —3. Tcstro next appeared, and Blair hit Frith for 3 to the off. Wilding bowled a maiden. Testro snicked Frith for 4, and Wilding bowled another maiden. Six consecutive maidens followed, and Blair hit Wilding to leg for 1. Testro made a single, and 2 leg-byos were run In the next over of Wilding’a Blair, who had been playing carefully and well, put a ball back to the bowler, which was secured O’Brien was the next man in. After a good deal of slow play O’Brien snicked Wilding for 3—30 up. Testro made 2 in the slips. After more careful play Testro hit a full pitch of Wilding’s to square log for 4. O’Brien hit Frith for 8 to leg—4o up. Some carefulplay ensued O’Brien hitting Wilding to the off for 2, and after a maiden from Frith the same batsmen sent Wilding to square leg for *4—so up. Another maiden from Frith, and Ashby took the ball from Wilding. O’Bi’ien hit Ashby for 4 to long leg. Fuller now took the ball

from Frith, and howled a maiden. Testro cut Fuller for 2. After two singles Testro again cut Fuller for 2—CO up. The playnow was very steady, until at last Fuller gave place to Barnes. O’Brien got Ashby away for 4 to leg, and 70 appeared on the board. O’Brien hit Barnes for 3, Frith now relieving Ashby at the north end. From the next over of Barnes 4 were credited to Testro. Both batsmen now seemed very well set, Testro having made 24 and O’Brien 33.

[Just as we wore going to press the Aucklanders were all out, Canterbury winning by 28 runs.]
