CRICKET.

KUMARA V. KOKIRI. a close Same. A crowd of about 250 witnessed an exciting tussle between Kumara and Kokiri, the issue being in doubt up to the last ball. When Kokiri’s last niltn came in they required 3 runs to win., but Seebeck accounted for the wicket (e and b) and gave Kumara the three points. An interesting feature of the game was the battle of wits between Blewman and Seebeck, the former ndthching 16 and 20 before falling a victim in both innings to the same bowler, who did well in securing 11 wickets in all for 59 runs. Kumara were handicapped in not having their most successful bowler available through indisposition, and had to fight every inch of the way for their victory. Sme light hearted hitting by Thorn helped considerably. Fielding was very keen on both sides. Details are as follows: KUMARA—IST INNINGS.
