CRICKET.
HAWKE’S SAY A6SOCtAMON; SENIOR CCi>; The result of the Senidt match, Colts v. United, which was finished on Saturday afternoon; Has left the championship still undecided, the defeat of Colts causing United and Scindq ft be a tie for the honour. There is nfi doubt that the unnecessarily long delay which occurred between tfte time this match was started and its termination, has had much to do with the result, causing Colts to be placed at a very great disadvantage. Had the game been finished on the day which was set down for it, about three months ago—and no valid reason can he advanced why it should not have been—it is practically certain that victory would have been the other way. It is to be honed that in future cases of unfinished matches, the association will take a more decided and businesslike stand, and not let matters drift as has occurred in the fresent case. On Saturday the wicket was dead, and all in favour of the bowlers; and not one of the batsmen made an effort against it, the five wickets, which were set the task of making Only fit runs, realising but 10 between them. The question as ft whether the Scinde and Unit, ed teams will play oil dr be bracketed for the premiership will be decided at a meeting of tile associations to be held this evening, Following are the scores•
