HAWKE CUP MATCH H.B. MAKES 162. MANAWATU TWO FOR 90. Palmerston N., Dec. 10. When play in the Hawke (Sip match was resumed after luncheon Shepherd and O'Brien commenced to score more freely. Gallichan eventually beat Shepherd at 98 with a yorker. A bright spot in the innings was the next two wickets, which improved Hawke's Bay’s position considerably. O'Brien and Evans added 22 for the eighth wicket. But easily the best partnership was that of Evans (17 not out) and Kavanagh (30). which produced 40 runs for the ninth wicket. The innings clos >d at 3.24 p.m.. Hawke’s Bay’s ’ v r.ns having taken 19’ minute* > '. The Manawatu attack rood.

DEADLY BOWLING TOO MUCH FOR COLTS. 'United Press Association— By CableSydney, Dec. 10. The test trial cricket match was continued to-day. The weather was cooler. Four thousand spectators were present. Woodfull’s team in the second innings made 541—Bradman 225, Kippax 170, Allsopp five, Rigg nine,

Burrows nil, Ellis 24, Blockie 11, Hornibrook one, Wall not out two, extras 25 Bowling —Grimmett seven for 173, Oxenham two for 97, McCabe one. for 42. Alexander, Whitfield. Mark and Ryder obtained no wickets. Ryder's team in the second innings lost eight for 152—McCabe 46, Marks 14, Herrocks five, Whitfield 19, Oxenham four, Walker nine, Jackson 15. Alexander eight, Ponsford not out eight, Ryder not out nine; extras 15. The wicket was disclosing signs of wear. Bradman showed restraint and was unhappy when facing Grimmett, who was particularly dangerous. Bradman went out leg before when he had added twenty runs to his overnight total. Kippax played Grimmett carefully but pasted the others. He rendered valuable help to the side. He gave a couple of difficult chances. Allsopp again failed with the bat. Rigg was unable to get going. The remainder of the side went cheaply, Ryder's team, with 188 to win began the second innings late in the afternoon and as an experiment tried using the colts first but the deadly bowling of Blackie and Hornihrook accounted for them one after another at brief intervals until file rot was stopped by the stalwarts. Ryder and Ponsford.
