CRICKET.

M.C.C. IN SOUTH AFRICA. THIRD TEST DRAWN. CAPETOWN, January 22. The test match was resumed in fine weather. The wicket was good. Africa lost two wicaets for 153. J anuary 22. The weather was bright, with a, strongish wind blowing across the ground, for the resumption of play The attendance was 400 U. The South Africans settled down and played sparkling cricket. Five bowlers were tried. The game being obviously for a draw, little interest attached to the later play, but the home team’s batting was consistent. Francois played pluckily and discreetly. Taylor showed a degree of mastership, scoring freely all round the wicket. The English fielding was excellent, and the bowlers were consistently good. The innings closed for 368. The game was drawn. Ling was absent through illness. Scores: SOUTH AFRICA.

MATCH AGAINST ZULULAND DRAWN. CAPETOWN, January 27. The weather cleared sufficiently to enable play to be commenced. The pitch was fairly fast. Zululand in the first innings made 105 runs (Pearse 48). Macaulav 'took six wickets for 19 runs- The Marylebone team lost three wickets for 208 runs (Brown M, Carr, not out. 62) when the innings was declared closed. Zululand in their second innings lost three wickets for 79 runs. The match was drawn. M.C.C. v. SOUTHLAND. EAST WIN FOR VISITORS. INVERCARGILL, January 22. The Marylebone-Southland match concluded to-day in splendid weather. The wicket was uneven during the first few hours, and showed signs of wear towards the close. Driscoll and Gilbertson continued, and by patient cricket brought 120 up before the former went lbw to Brand. Doig did not stay long, adding two, and he was followed by Dixon, who put seven more on the board. Glozier helped Gilbertson to carry the score to 146. Glozier made 17 by free cricket, including one six. Fogo was the last man, adding Gilbertson played carefully for 15. Tyldesley and Hill-Wood opened the Englishmen’s second innings, but the latter went at 7. Freeman came in, and went when seven more had been added. Gibson and Tyldesley carried the score to 53, when the latter skied one to mid-on. Gibson went at 66, and Brand and Hartley carried the score to 83, when the former was stumped in trying to hit Kavanagh. Maclean then joined Hartley, and when 101 was hoisted the innings was declared closed. Southland made little headway against the visitors’ bowling, Marylebone winning by 196 runs. 'lTie attack of Calthorpe proved too deadly for the home batsmen, who were too caretul in playing for a draw. The fielding of the Englishmen was particularly smart, all possible chances being accepted. KavaJiagh, Groves, and Doig were the only batsmen to shape encouragingly. Scores: — ENGLAND.

Fine weather greeted the opening of the M.C.C.-Wellington match. The wicket was soft after the rain, and the outfield was dead. Hiddleston and Collins opened against the bowling of Gibson and Calthorpe, but just as the batsmen seemed to be getting set to the bowling, Collins, in playing back to Calthorpe, hit his wicket. 24 —f—7. Bernau was the next man, but after a very scratchy stay at the wickets he sent one back to Gibson. 47 —2—3. Hiddleston was still playing confidently, scoring fast. Kortlang was the next man, but only survived one ball, the second being sent back to Gibson. 473 —0. Baker was the newcomer. After two more runs had been scored Hiddleston was caught by M'Lean off Calthorpe. 49 —4—38. M‘Girr was the next man, but he put the first ball off Calthorpe into Chapman’s hands. 49 —s—o.5 —0. Dempster went in next, and with Baker seemed to be making a stand, but just as there seemed a likelihood of a good partnership the former stepped in front to one from Gibson. 56—6—3. Brice, the next man, failed to score, running hifnself out by bad judgment. 56 —7 —o. Grant was the next man. Baker by this time was batting well. He played both bowlers confidently, and the partnership' was the brightest of the innings. Grant was slower than Baker, but both were batting well. At 87 Grant was bowled by Calthorpe. 87—8—12. The luncheon adjournment followed immediately. Tattersall joined Baker on resuming, and bright batting saw 100 go up after 150 minutes play. At 103 Brand replaced Gibson, and the change was successful, as he got Baker with his second ball. 103 —9 35. Henderson was the last man, but did not survive long, being stumped by Maclean with the score at 104, Tattersall being not out with four to his credit. Wilkinson and Tit-chmarsh opened England’s innings, and Brice and Bernau took up the attack. Off the first ball of the innings Wilkinson failed to survive an appeal for leg-before-wicket from Brice. o—l—o. Lowry was the next man, and a bright partnership followed, Titohmarsh delighting the crowd with pretty glides to fine leg. At 36 Titchmarsh was smartly caught by Brice in the slips off Bernau. 36 —2 —21. Chapman joined Low-ry, but the latter was caught by Dempster at silly point one run later. 37 —3—15. Calthorpe, the next man, fell to, Brice without scoring, and things looked bad for the Englishmen. 37—4—0. Hill-Wood went to the wickets, and amused the crowd by his awkward stance. He did not stay long, and after scoring four runs was bowled by Brice. 58 —5—4. Maclean w-as the next to face the bowlers. Chapman, who had been going well, poked one up to Kortlang off the first ball from M’Girr, who had replaced Bernau. 60 —6 Hartley was the next man, and survived until the tea. adjournment, but almost immediately afterwards was clean bowled by Brice. 65»-7 —2. Brand, w-ho was the next man, met with disaster atfer he had scored a single, being caught in the outfield by Hiddleston. 70 — B—l.8 —1. Gibson joined Maclean, and the patrnership was characterised by vigorous cricket. Both men went for the bowling and brought the score to 98 before Maclean was caught by Hiddleston off M’Girr. 98 —9 —29. Freeman was the new-comer,- and Gibson hit the first six of the day on the former’s arrival. The end came soon afterwards with the score at 107. Gibson being bowled by Brice. 107—10—15. Hiddleston and Baker opened Wellington’s second innings, and the former got into his stride straight aw-ay. Baker could not get going, and at 11 was calight by Maclean off Gibson. —11—I—o.1 —0. • Kortlang joined Hiddleston, but the latter fell soon' afterwards, playing one off Calthorpe. 292 —17. Tattersall w-as the next batsman, but Kortlang was bow-led without a further increase to the score. 29 —3 9. Grant w-as the newcomer. At 36 Freeman relieved Calthorpe. The scoring w-as very slow at this stage, but the partnership was a good one,- and added 25 runs before Grant was bowled by Brand, who had relieved Gibson. 54 —5 —7. . Collins went in next, but he lost his partner (Tattersall) without any further increase in the score. 54 —s—-17.5 —-17. He had played a good innings when runs were hard to get. Bernau filled the gap. and got going immediately. With Collins he earned the score to 66 before the latter was brilliantly caught by Calthorpe. 66 —6—2. M’Girr. the incomer, scored 7 during his stav of three minutes at the wickets. He semed to be getting the pace of the wicket when he was stumped by Maclean off Freeman. 79 —7—7.

NEW ZEALAND CRICKETERS. A C HACLAREN’S CRITICISM. WELLINGTON, January 23. A. C. MacLaren, captain of the M.C.C. team, does not think New Zealand cricket would derive any benefit by sending to and importing teams from Australia, whose players are much too strong. His advice is to get two good professional bowlers from England of Tyldesley’s stamp. He considers Snedden, Collins, Lambert, Dacre, Shepherd, and Blunt batsmen who would find places in county elevens at Home; but of the bowlers he has not much to say, except that M’Girr shows promise, if he can learn to control his length. Speaking at Invercargill, Colonel Hartley said that M’Beath, the ex-Southlander, who is now playing for Otago, was a very good bowler. Many of them thought that he was the best bowler they had met so far in New Zealand. Torrance had also bowled extraordinarily well. SHEFFIELD SHIELD MATCH. SYDNEY, January 26. ihe start of the Sheffield Shield match was delayed an hour owing to the rain last night. The rain softened the pitch near the wicket, though it was tarpaulined. However, it played true and without fire. Woodfull was scratchy, but lucky. He gave two chances, and was dismissed with a wonderful catch by Oldfield running from the wicket. iHe batted 68 minutes. Ryder and Hartkopf established a sterling and fast scoring- partnership, which yielded 118 runs. Ryder was twice missed early in the innings. He hit a couple of sixes. Park and Hansford were content with safe play. Tile state of the wicket handicapped the fast bowlers, and the fielding was somewhat below standard. Several catches were missed. Victoria lost five wickets for 320 (Mayne 17, Woodfull 27, Ryder 71, Hartkopf 63, Park not out 65, Ransford 40, Wallis not out 24). January 27. In the Sheffield Shield cricket match between Victoria and New South Wales, Victoria in the first innings made 353 runs (Park 66, Willis 42). Scott took three wickets for 83 runs and Mailey three for 93. New South Wales have lost six wickets for 291 (Collins 106, Macartney 65, Kippax, not out, 60, Hendry, not out, 25). The weather was fine and the wicket faster. The remaining five Victorian batsmen made a very poor showing, collapsing before the bowling of Scott and Mailey, and the much-improved field work. New South Wales opened badly, Bardsley going at seven. Then Collins, who was playing very cautiously, and Macartney, who was slashing and brilliant, were associated in a partnership which added 111 runs. Macartney was badly missed early i n his innings. The following three wickets fell quickly, and then Kippax joined Collins and stopped the rot. Collins played one of his pluckiest innings. Kippax and Hendry played sound and forceful cricket. The Victorians tried all their bowling talent, and the fielding was very keen. AN AUSTRALIAN GRIEVANCE. SYDNEY, January 22. There is considerable heartburning among cricket bodies in the various States over the alleged policy offering inducements to players to forsake their own State for another, in order to strengthen the latter’s representative team. It is stated that two leading South Australians have been induced to go to Victoria. This is specially galling in view of the fact that South Australia, with its full present strength, made such a poor showing in the Sheffield Shield matches. CANTERBURY v. OTAGO. GOOD SCORE BY THE VISITORS. TALBOT MAKES A CENTURY. The Plunket Shield match between Canterbury and Otago was commenced at Carisbrook Ground on Friday afternoon. The attendance w-as not large, only £l7 being taken at the gates. Canterbury won the toss and elected to bat. Unfortunately for Otago, a light drizzle commenced to fall shortly before 3 o’clock, and the rain continued all the afternoon. The Otago bowlers were soon handicapped through not being able to grip the ball, and Casey, especially, could do no good on the greasy ground. M’Beath did not secure a very good average, but he was the best bowler on his side nevertheless, and tried hard right through his long turn at the bowling crease. Dickinson sent down some fine balls, and some loose ones on the leg side, which the batsmen did not fail to go for. He has secured the average so far. Blunt batted well, his off driving and cutting being executed with plenty of force and his timing being excellent. Like all the other Canterbury batsmen he generally kept the ball well on the ground. Talbot, a youthful player, who was making his first appearance in big cricket, got his runs in first-class style. He commenced with the greatest confidence, and gave a practically chanceless innings. He watches the ball well, and knows which balls to hit and which to simply stop. During one part of his innings he got no fewer than 14 consecutive singles. He is very good with leg glances, and has also a sound square cut. He has, in fact, good scoring shots all round the wicket. Mr Talbot, senior, who was naturally proud of the fine exhibition given by his son, stated that young Talbot had gained a lot of experience from his tour with the Nomads, and had scored centuries in two of the matches played by that team. Powell, a left-hander, also played a sound innings. This batsman has a particularly clean square cut, and he scored with it well yesterday. The fielding of the Otago team was very good, considering the slippery state of the ground. Some of the fieldsmen, however, should take a lesson from the English crack, Chapman, and use both hands when going

to stop the ball. Galland shaped well behind the wickets, only five extras —one a leg bye—being scored in Canterbury’s big total. A peculiar incident occurred during Talbot’s innings. He was confidently appealed against for leg before, olf M’Beath’s bowling, and understood that the umpire’s decision had gone against him. He walked out from his wicket, but then discovered that the umpire had given him not out. Galland, the wicketkeeper, had the ball in his hands by this time, but in true sportsmanlike spirit refrained from knocking off the bails. Blunt also played the game, when he declined to run for an overthrow, Talbot having accidentally obstructed Galland when he was taking the ball. Scores:— CAXTEBBUBY. First Innings.

Bowling Analysis.—M’Beath, 181 balls, one maiden, 80 runs, one wicket; A. \V. Alloo, 114 balls, one maiden, 56 runs; Dickinson, 80 balls, 43 runs, three wickets; Shepherd, 24 balls, 10 rims; Conradi, 48 balls, 20 runs, one wicket Casey, 24 balls, 20 runs. The first innings of Canterbury realised 284. The Otago team’s first innings realised only 97 (Knight 29, H. C. Alloo 21, Duncan 14, and Shepherd 10). Following on and requiring 137 to save defeat by one innings Otago scored 207. Canterbury put together the required runs and won by 10 wickets. PRIMARY SCHOOLS’ MATCH. GEORGE STREET v. WALTHAM (CHRISTCHURCH). A match was commenced on the Caledonian Ground on Wednesday between the George Street School cricket team and the Waltham School team. Interest was added to the match by the fact that both teams won the premiership in their respective provinces, Dunedin and Christchurch, last year. r lhe weather was dull and overcast, but held up without rain, and the wicket was in good condition. Waltham won the toss and elected to field. The only bright play on the part of the home team was shown by Johnson, Leader, and Jenkins, the remainder failing to cope with the good bowling and fielding of the Waltham team. Ihe home team was at the wickets two and a-half hours for 63 runs. At 3 o’clock VVaitham began batting, and Gasson made 6i), Dawson 23, and Olliver 55. Sibley batted well for 17, but hit one high to leg and was caught brilliantly by the leg fieldsman. j_ne fielding of both teams was very good, but, with the exception of Leader and Lindsay, the home bowlers were unsuccessful. Good bowlers are more numerous among the visitors, and their batting, from most points of view, is superior. The match between the Waltham (Christchurch) School and the George Street School was continued on Thursday, and resulted in an easy win for the former by an innings and 30 runs. The only successful batsman in George Street’s second strike was Ryan, who compiled 38 not out. Scores: GEORGE STREET.

Wellington lost seven wickets for 91 (Cousins 36, Almao 22). January 23. Wellington won the junior representative match against Canterbury by two wickets after an interesting and exciting game. Can-

Wellington made 126 in their first innings, and lost eight wickets for 161 in their second (Pope 37, Cousins 36).

Sandman (78), Talbot (60), Gregory (55), and Powell (47) were the principal scorers. The fielding of the South Canterbury team was very slack, many chances being allowed to go begging. Hay was the most successful of the seven bowlers, getting five wickets for 113 runs. THE HAWKE CUP. WANGANUI, January 24. The Ilawke Cup match, North Taranaki v. Wanganui, w-as concluded today in warm weather. The wicket was considerably improved. Wanganui’s second innings produced 231 runs (Orr 54. London 49, Lomas 49, Williams 18, Holland 15, Allardyce 12 not out). Bowling Analysis. Lambert, four for 50; Foreman, three for 36; Newbold, two for 29; Clarke, one for 58.

The local association has agreed upon February 13 and 14 as the dates for Poverty Bay’s challenge for the Hawke Cup. This will be the fifth challenge match this season. CANTERBURY TOURING TEAM. TIMARU, January 25. The Canterbury-South Canterbury cricket match was continued at Temuka to-day in dull weather. A drying wicket gave the visitors a big advantage with the ball, and the home side made a somewhat indifferent show. VVith 341 to make, South Canterbury started disastrously, and the first innings closed with the score at 86. M’Ewin took three wickets for 12, Blunt two for eight, and Standman two for 14. South Canterbury followed on, and shaped better, managing to play out time and save an innings defeat. The score stood at 116 for eight wickets when stumps were drawn to allow the visitors to proceed on their southern tour. Read took four wickets for 16 runs. Harper, with 29, made top score for the home side. SOUTH OTAGO MATCHES. Tn the South Otago shield matches on the 20th Milton A team sustained its first defeat of the season, being beaten by 18 runs. Scores;—Milburn 90 and 56 for two wickets; Milton A 72. Milton B team, playing Kaitangata, was also defeated. Scores Milton B, 87 ; Kaitangata. 139 The Kaitangata innings was remarkable for the good stand made by the “tail,” the last three wickets adding 60 runs, of which the last wicket contributed 28 runs. Cockburn (37) was the principal scorer for the winners, and Proctor (30) was top scorer for Milton. REPRESENTATI V E CRICKETER. TRANSFERENCE TO DUNEDIN. CHRISTCHURCH, January 22. Mr R. de R. Worker, of the West Christchurch Cricket Club, played his last game in club cricket in Christchurch on Saturday. After the southern tour of the Canterbury team, of which Worker will be a member, he will take up a teaching appointment at the Otago Boys’ High School. “Canterbury’s loss is Otago’s gain,” said the Sun. Worker is a left-hander, and is a resolute and patient batsman who, with an aggregate of 336 runs in nine innings in club cricket this season —an average of 37.33 runs —is fourth in the batting averages of the province. He is an opening batsman and a consistent scorer, and but for his weakness in putting his leg in front of his wicket he might have attained New Zealand representative honours. Both in club and in representative cricket he opens with the more brilliant R. C. Blunt, and the two make a splendid combination, having a complete understanding in running between the wickets. Worker is also a splendid outfield—sure and certain—who can always be depended upon to take a catch and who throws fast and accurately to the wickets. He learned his cricket under F. Shacklock, the veteran coach, and he is a product of the Auckland Grammar School. Three seasons ago he came to Christchurch, and then opened up in club cricket with a century. Since then he has been a tower of strength to his province. Chiefly he will be remembered for his 65 runs against the M.O.U team when he was associated with Blunt in a memorable first-wicket partnership which put on 268 runs. Canterbury can ill afford to lose a player of Worker s description. STYLE IN CRICKET. LONDON, January 24. At ths-annual meeting of the Hampshire County Club Dr Russell Bancroft said that Mr Sydney Smith had written a book m which* he fiercely criticised English cnoket, contending that it is out of date. His answer to Mr Smith was that cnoket had a great tradition, and cricketers throughout the Empire could safely trust the Marylebono Club, which bad safeguarded the game for 156 years. Mr Smith apparently considered that it would be better if a more slap-dash style were introduced on the lines of “Do it and damn the consequences.’ He seemed to think that when the Australians came to England all other cricket should be scrapped, but English cricketers had no sympathy with such ideas.
