CROMB 126 NOT OUT
AUCKLAND HAS WIN FIRST STRIKE DECIDES . MARGIN OF FIVE RUNS (Per Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, this day. A grand innings by I. B. Cromb for 12G not out was a feature of Canterbury's great recovery in the second innings of the Plunket Shield cricket match against Auckland, which was concluded at Lancaster Park yesterday. The innings closed for 292 runs, ieaving Auckland 288 to get to secure an outright win. The fall of three wickets for 44 runs greatly improved Canterbury’s chances of a win, but rain again took a hand in the match and severely handicapped the bowlers. When play ended Auckland had made 166 runs for the loss of three wickets and so won the match by five runs on the first innings. The weather in the early part of the day was fine and the wicket was in good order for batting, but there was only a moderate attendance.
