SENIOR CHAMPIONSHIP.

UARISBKOOK A "Pi DuNEDIN. The above match v/as continued before a fair number of spectators, and Punedin, who had two very ,close matches with the Red, White, and Blue last season, managed to turn the tables on their opponents by beating them by four wickets. Of course the Dunedin ■would have liked to have beaten Carisbrook with their full strength, but if they way strict attention to practice they might be able to «o so in ihe return match. Great praise is due to Cramond, who made his first appearance in\a-senior, match, and it was through His efforts to a large extent that his team were returned winners. -His innings of 19; was compiled in a first-class manner, some of his off strokes being perfect. A Mackenzie proved, as he lias often done before, the right manjjn .■ the right place, and his 21 (not out) was_of invaluable assistance to .his side; and B.."'Wilkie made 12 (not out) just when they ■were wanted. Spraggon and Liggins, the two npt-out batsmen, came out to continue the Carisbrook's innings, Geddes opening with the ball for Dunedin. After 4 had been added Latham beat. Spraggon with a good one. Harkness, after scoring 1, was run out, and Harraway joined Liggins, who was batting very stubbornly. The score was taken, to 80 when Geddes beat Harraway, Liggins being not out with 15, made in his usual patient manner,' and when his side wanted runs badly: *Latham;(two for 14) bowled very well, and Geddes proved very troublesome. Geddes and Mackersy opened for Dunedin, Harkness and I'islier being entrusted with the ball. Disaster befell Dunedin right away, as before, a run was s_cored Mackersy was run out for the/third time this season. Croxford joined Geddes, and' after the former had made 1 lie played one back to Fisher. Skitch joined his captain, and with the score at 5 was bowled by Harkness. Cramond joined Skitch, and 5 were added to the score, when Skitch was caught off Harkness. Latham filled the breach, and after making 3 put his leg in front of one from JJarkness. Five wickets-were down for 19, and the hopes of the Carisbrook supporters' were beginning to look bright. Mackenzie came in, and he and Cramond settled down to steady play. The runs came steadily, and the hopes of the Dunedin began to ascend. The score was taken to 43, when Cramond was-unfortunately run o^t. His : innings of 19 came at the right time for his side, and fully justifies his selection. R. Wilkie,joined Mackenzie, and the pair got ;ithe required runs between them. Mackenzie' contributing 21 (not out) and Wilkie 12; (not out). Fisher (one for 7) and Ixarkne3S (three for 45) bowled, well for Carisbrook. The following are, the detailed 6cores:-?-•"■ '. ' '
