The Waddy-Howell partnership added 88 runs. Howell, though safer than usual, made a number of uppish strokes. Waddy played a careful game. Travel's was in capital bowling form, and used his head well. Excepting Hill, who was batting for an hour, and Pellew, the visitors in their second essay could make no headway against Cotter's deliveries. New South Wales in their first innings made 299, of which Huff had 80, Waddy 57, Howell 62, and Carter 22. Cowan took one wicket for 17 runs; Travers, six for 102; Reedman, three for 79.
