SECOND TEST.
PLAY THIS MORNING
Per Press Association.
CHRISTCHURCH, March 30. Saturday’s postponement and th© prospect that the second test cricket match is unlikely to reach a decisive stage robbed the play to-day of a great deal of interest. The weather was fine but cold when Victoria with two down for 88 resumed the first innings, Ellis (39) and Woodfull (19) facing Dickinson and Cunningham. After a short time Cunningham bowled Ellis with a beauty.—lll-3-50. Willis did not last long, being caught behind the stumps by Garrard off McBeth.—ll 4-4-11. Ransford followed. He hit Mcßetli and called for a single. The return was wide; otherwise Woodfull would have been run out. Ransford hit Blunt twice to tho leg boundary off successive balls. Later. At the luncheon adjournment the score was 224 for the loss of four wickets—Woodfull (not out) 88, Ransford (not out) 42, extras 3G.
