GREY CRICKET CLUB.

[FBLtX.]

Now that the cricket curtain is down for the season I append a brief summary of the doings of the above. .Club. Bothth# senior and juniors were urtsuccetsful in their efforts to. win the championships, which fell to the lot of Nelson Cr«et and No Town respectively. A bat presinted by Mr Chalk for the best batting average in senior cup series was won by the Captain (E A Wickea) with an average of 15 '3 for 5 innings, the runners up being Chalk :14-2. and Parry;; 13/3. ' & the junior division Kenrple with an average ofll.4 accpunted for the bat presented byMrJ^Carthyvwifch Kirwaii 955 an 4 Adams 9. as runners up. In the jx>wlin§ department honors throughout thi seiiofi were very even, but eventually jfeU te tW lot of T. Parry with an average of 20 wickets at a qost of 4 runs apiece (exagtl^ half of .the .wi^elis i taken ;by tfo'iplub^ f ollowed closet^: by Wickes B foif 4*5 aM Walton 7 for 4'U Parry l by securing thl bowling average wins the trophy .pie* sented by the Tpeal representative (Mf J Teiinent) of H W Lloyd, jewellers. : ; -fii the junior division- D Phillips seeurta pride 6i place with an average of ?widk»W for 4-5 runs apUod I6Uq*«4 ty Skogltift

5 for s'B. During the season Adams as wicketkeeper disposed of no fewer than 12 men, and if taken care of will without doubt be of great assistance to his club in the future. In all matches »layed by the senior club during the season the averages undergo a slight change, Parry securing the honor with an average of 165 for 9 innings, followed by Chalk 12-8, Knell 11-2 and Wickes 10 4; whilst in- the bowling Walton, secures second place from, Wickes, P«ry^ still maintaining his position with pickets for 3-5 ancl Walton 18 for 51. The juniors during the season only played the championship matches.
