HAMILL SHIELD CRICKET

THREE-POINTER FOR COLTS.

Quick hitting in the second innings gained Colts a three-point win over Pio Pio in the Hamill Shield cricket competition on Saturday. Pio Pio went in first to make 66 runs. No less than 30 of these were extras, composed of 26 byes, 3 leg byes and a single no ball. Though Colts opened disastrously, the HutchinsSeccombe partnership and then Barlow raised the total quickly, and the tenth wicket fell with 103 runs scored. Box and Ronaldson provided a bright partnership -in Pio Pio's second innings, and then Smith followed up with a useful 12. The innings' total of 107, leaving Colts with the task of raising within about 30 minutes a total of 71 for a three-pointer, made Colts' chances of adding further to their advantage seem remote. However, it was done for the loss of a single wicket. Barlow was caught fairly early but McLeod was joined by the hard-hitting Brainsby, and between them they rattled on the score, McLeod not being caught until after the winning mark was passed. Details scores were as follows: — PIO PlO.—First Innings.

KIWI v. WAITANGURU. The bowling of Evans and Pedersen proved disatrous to Waitanguru last Saturday, and Kiwi secured a threepoint victory. Aided by 31 runs from the newcomer, McKenzie, Kiwi raised 81 in their first innings. Waitanguru collapsed in the first innings, scoring only 18 runs, and in the second, with Bilton contributing 17, the score was 31. The hat trick was gained by Pedersen in Waitanguru's first knock.

ARIA r. SCHOOL.

Fairly high scoring occurred in the match between High School and. Aria. School, with Aria's contribution of 58, ran up the good total of 106 in their first innings. However, the partnership between Knock and Arneil sped the Aria score upward, and their innings closed for 146. This gave them a two point victory, for School, after knocking up 85 in their second innings, left no time in which Aria could bat again. SCHOOL.—Ist Innings.
