Carisbrook A v. Opoho.

Owing to the continual rains which have been prevalent in Dunedin for the last two or three weeks, the Carisbrook ground wan in a somewhat heavy and slow condition, although the wicket played fairly well throughout the afternoon. The Carisbrook team had already secured ¥1 runs without the loss of a wicket on a previous Saturday afternoon, when the day's play was stopped on account of rain. On resuming Fisher and Cuff, tha not-out men, faced the bowling of Webb and, Eckhoff, but the former, after cutting Eckhoff cleanly to the boundary, was bowled by, Webb, having contributed 35 by good cricket, G. G. Austin joined Cuff, but, with the scoiv at 58, Webb found a weak spot in Cuff's defence. Siedeberg only saw six added to the total when he put his leg- in front of one from Webb. Xiiggins commenced slowly, both he and Austin watching the bowling carefully. The score continued to mount slowly, and i several changes were made in the bowling, I M'Gavin, Eckhoff, and Gough bowling in turn from tho Cargill road end, while Webb, who was getting a large amount of work on, maintained the attack from the pavilion end. When 108 was reached Austin was given out leg-before-wicket to Webb, after having secured 21 in his usual style. Butler almost! | immediately patted one into M'Lean's hands; jat mid-wicket. Thomson now joined Lig- | gins, and the score was taken to 126, when Eckhoff bowled Xiiggins with a good on©! The outgoing batsman batted well for 31* H. Harraway quickly knocked up 14, and was well taken by Webb off Eckhoff. E. Jl Austin commenced at once, but soon lost Thomson, who, walking out to one from Eele-: hoff, was stumped by Lear. J. Harraway started forcibly, but, after making 6, was bowled by Chadwick. G. Harraw r ay only came in to see E. J. Austin bowled by Chadwick, the innings closing for 169. Webb wag undoubtedly the mainstay of the bowling, and was well assisted by Eckhoff and ChadwieV. Gollar and Cooch opened for Opoho, Fisher and G. Harraway bowling. At 12 Gollar was caught in the plips off Fisher, and at 16 Gooch was caught in the long .field off Siedeberg, who had relieved G. Harraway, With the score at the small total of 24-, Kil« gour, Webb, and Gough had succumbed to' the wily bowling of Siedeberg, and at 21 Chadwick was caught at cover off Fisher, M'Gavin saw the total to j35, when he was caught by G. Austin, and. .Lear and Eekhofj failing to increase the score, the innings closed, for that total, leaving Carisbrook winners by 134-. The following are the detailed scores : — « Carisbrook A.

The second match this season between the abovo teams wa-, played at the Carisbrook ground on Saturday. Grange, batting first on a slow wicket, only succeeded in compiling 88 runs. Carisbrook responded with 45, the Grange thus winning by 43 runs on the first innings. Chadwick, for the Grange, obtained his runs in good style. He is a lefthanded bat, possessed of a sound defence, and displays considerable bitting power s

He went in with the score at 38, and was out last wicket, being bowled by O. R. Smith after a very creditable innings for 27. The only other Grange batsmen to reach double figures were Baker (15) and Haydon (18). 'Monk (four wickets for 25) and C. R. Smith '{four for 16) were in good bowling form for The B team, while the ball with which Fisher dismissed Johnston was a trimmer, quite ."worthy of his elder brother. Carisbrook, on •'going in to bat, could do absolutely nothing with the bowling of the Downes brothers, only one batsman reaching double figures. Appended are the individual scores: — Grange.
