[PRESS ASSOCIATION COPYBIGHT.]

Melbourne, Jan. 11.

The Victorians scored rapidly, making 167 before lunch, which is an Australian record. Their innings was solid rather than brilliant and lasted 260 minutes. The New Zealanders improved in their fielding. Sdndman

dismissed Armstrong brilliantly. Hickmott was especially good in the long field. The bowling on the whole was mediocre. The New- Zealanders shaped better in their second innings. Sneddno played a excellent and effective game with stylish strokes on both airier He reached fifty in 78 minutes and hit M fourers. Hemus played stylish cricket and showed good judgment as to the pace of the wicket. Tuckwell’s innings was colourless and lasted 72 minutes. He hit 3 fourers. McDonald ruptured his knee sinew and AV. Carlas substitute. Scores :— VICTORIA. First Innings. Carroll c Hickmott, b Robin-

Speaking at the luncheon, Mr. McKinnon, president of the association, said that the New Zealanders had come, not with the idea of beatirfg the Australians, but anxious to learn and gain ideas of value to the gsffie in New Zealand. He hoped that the result would be that before long New Zealand would be able to take -her place with Australia and Africa and beat England on level terms.

Reese expressed disappointment at the performances of his batsmen, who had not reproduced the form they had shown in New Zealand and could rot accustom themselves to the fast wickets.
