HAWKE CUP

BOWLERS’ DAY. NELSON LEAD ON FIRST INNINGS It was a bowlers’ day in tlio Hawke Cup match yesterday, only 217 runs being scored while 15 wickets fell. The close of play saw Nelson holding a lead of 74, with seven wickets in hand. After lunch Manawatu added another 64 runs, the first innings closrng at 156, 27 short of Nelson’s total, witn the exception of Baumber, the Manawatu batsmen could do little against the Newman brothers’ bowling. Of the 123 runs off the bat he was responsible for 88, Me Vicar being the only other to even reach double figures. Levin man played bright cricket and hit four sixes and nine fours. The wicket played fairly well. J. and A. Newman trundled well for the visitors and always commanded respect, Baumber being the only batsman able to do anything with their deliveries. The fielding was keen. On going in again Nelson fared badly until A. Newman and Hawkes became associated and these two could not be separated before “stumps,” when 57 runs were on the board for three wickets. Fletcher did not last long after lunch, as with only seven runs added he was clean bowled by J. Newman. — 98—7—4. ’ Norris joined Baumber, who proceeded to add runs brightly. He cut J. Newman rather luckily fox - foui - , bl'inging the century up and his own 50. Soon afterwards Norris called Baumber for a short run and the Levin man rvas slow in leaving his crease, but J. Newman failed to get the bails off quickly enough. It was a piece of' good fortune for Manawatu. Norris was not getting much of the bowling, Baumber doing most of the scoring. At 118, J. Newman gave way to Searell at the river end - , and Baumber lifted him to long leg for six, following it with a pull for four. Baumber opened out to A. Newman also and hit him back straight for another six. bringing him into the eighties. Searell was taken off in favour of J. Newman while Eden replaced A." Newman. BAUMBER DISMISSED. '

When Baumber had reached 88 J. Newman clean bowled him.—l 4 B—BB. Diedei - ich followed and cut J. Newman for one, Nonas getting a single off the next ball. Diederich put J. Newman for one and an overthrow brought him two more. Norris could not get going properly and at 149 got his leg in front to Eden.—l49—9—s. Tarrant joined Diederich, who faced S. Newman at the river end. After they had ci - ossed over Diederich drove Eden to the long off fence. S. Newman,' who had bowled a maiden, gave way to J .Newman, who also sent down a maiden over. S. Newman came on again and clean bowled Diederich, the innings closing for 156. NELSON BAT AGAIN! Neale and Eden opened the visitors’ second innings at 4 p.m., McVicar bowling from the town end and Tarrant from the other, Eden opened the scoring, putting a loose one from Tarrai)t to leg for a single, . Neale pulled Tarrant hard to fine leg, smart work by I’acev confining tho outcome to a single. * Neale brought ten up with a nice four to fine leg off McVicar. With 18 on the board Neale mishit one from McVicar to square-leg and Wild brought off a good running catch. —18—1 —J.2. Ralfe joined-Eden, who survived an appeal for l.b.w. off McVicar. In the next over Ralfe got his leg in front to Tarrant. —18 —2—o. A. Newman followed and brought 20 up with a brace off McVicar. He soon lost Eden, Norris taking a clever catch behind the wickets off McVicar.—25 — 3—7. Hawkes followed and played out the over. McVicar was breaking across but could not separate the pair who were playing cautiously, 30 appearing after 50 minutes’ play. Tarrant gave way to Gallichan. A. Newman squarecut Gallichan for two, bringing 40 up. McVicar was replaced by Diederich and Hawkes drove the first ball to the on boundary, a bye bringing 50 up after 70 minutes’ play. Diederich was not troubling the batsmen and Hawkes got a four to square leg. At 5.20 an appeal against the light was upheld. Details are as follow: NELSON.'. ' First Innings ... 183 Second Innings.
