CRICKET.
Per Electric Telegraph—Copyright. (By Telegraph.) London, January 14. A match has been arranged for next season, as a testimonial to W. W. Read, the well known Surrey amateur, between Stoddart’s team and the rest of England, instead of''England v. Surrey, as at first contemplated. Adelaide, January 15. Iredale was batting just over four hours. His defensive play was of the soundest possible description, and as he got set after each break in the innings he did some splendidly timed hittingMost of his.seventeen 4s were the results of perfect late cuts. On returning to the pavilion he received a great ovation, the people rising and cheering him greatly. A. Trott’s score occupied 90 minutes in compilation, and his display was even more brilliant than that of Bruce. Cleaner and harder drivieg than Trott’s has seldom been seen in Adelaide, His total included elven 4s. Until towards the finish the fielding of the Englishmen was first-class. A. Trott’s fast ball which beat Ward smashed the off stump. Ward played an hour for his score of 13.
