Hammond and Tyldesley played freely all round the wicket, despite many changes of bowling. The partnership put on 127 for the third wicket. Tyldesley's defence was sound, but he did not neglect to score whenever the opportunity offered. Hammond gave a masterly display. He hit one six and seven fours. —A. and N.Z. Cable.
