DECIDING THE WINNER.
» CRICKET TEAMS TOSS. An unusual method' of deciding the winner of a cricket match was mentioned before the executive of the Southland Cricket Association, . a member said he had been informed that two junior teams had tossed up to decide a match. The secretary said that one of the teams had advised that it had defaulted for the match in question. Further light was shed on the matter by another member who said that both teams had been short, and accordingly they decided not to play, but to toss up, the winners of the toss to have the match and the losers to default. Members appeared to be of the opinion that no points should have been awarded for the match, and accordingly it was decided to ask the clubs concerned to give an explanation.
