THE ENGLISH TEAM

MATCH AT ADELAIDE VISITORS FOUR FOR 240 PAYNTER MAKES BRIGHT 62 Adelaide, Mar. 10. The weather was clear and hot for the ericket match, England versus South Australia. The wicket was easy and the attendance poor. England opened with Verity and Paynter. The former survived a run •ut when 12, but was out next ball which was skied to square leg, Ryan taking an easy catch. Scoring was slow for the first hour, only 30 being obtained and only 54 by lunch. Partnered by Wyatt, Paynter sparkled and was particularly destructive to Grimmett, running down the pitch and making brilliant straight drives. He hit Lee high for six to square-leg. His bright innings terminated when he was 62, he being eaught at deep mid-on by Ryan. He batted 130 minutes and hit five fours •nd one six. Grimmett also got Wyatt caught in •Tips close in by Williams. Wyatt was steadiness personified during his innings of 43, which included two fours. He batted 94 minutes. Opening with a four off Grimmett’sthird ball, Jardine settled down defensively. Leyland also lacked his accustomed vigour. At tea the score was three for 157. Jardine had no inclination to hit, taking 75 minutes to score 30. Leyland hit fours off Grimmett and Tobin bringing up 30 at this stage. Leyland escaped being run out, having misjudged a throw-in. The main scoring was off Grimmett, who had two for 99 off 15 •vers. When 36 Leyland mishit Lee and was taken at deep-point by Nitschke. He batted 189 minutes and hit three fours. Displaying unusual restraint, Ames straight drove Ryan for four, all being run. Two hundred was hoisted in 258 minutes. Ames opened out and straight drove Ryan for a crisp square eut. and quickly ran 1 into the twenties, in marked contrast to his captain, who was satisfied with occasional singles •cores; ENGLAND First Innings Verity, e Ryan, b Williams .. .. 12 Paynter, e Ryan, b Grimmett .. 62 Wyatt, c Williams, b Grimmett .. 43 Leyland, c Nitschke, b Lee .. .. 36 Jardine, not, out .. 48 Ames, not out 36 Extra* 3 Total for four wickets .. 240

Hobbs, prior to embarking on the Otranto for London to-day said that Bradman was still the best batsman in the world, and if he had not been troubled by the so-called bodyline bowling, England’s run to victory would not have been so clear cut. HICH SCHOOL MATCHES. HASTINGS v.' DANNEVIRKE. A match between the first elevens of the Hastings and Dannevirke High Schools was commenced on the latter’s ground yesterday afternoon in ideal weather. The home side batted first and were only able to score a modest 87. With the exception three men, the team failed to make a stand. At one stage Lean struck a very bright patch seeming three wickets before the batsmen had scored. Broadbent, although not being highest scorer, went in first and was unbeaten at the close of the innings with 15. Hastings opened exceedingly well and their prospects were very bright. However, after the first wicket had fallen, the bowlerS definitely took the upper hand, and the other nine batsmen could only score 28 between them. Dannevirke are faring better in their second innings, having lost six wickets for 62 runs.
