Bowling averages :—Burnes 4 for 28, Dalrymple 3 for 26, Golding 1 for 10, Stead 1 for 7. On Boxing Day the match against Queenstown was played on a shocking wicket, no matting being laid, and in a few overs it cut up badly, batting and bowling creases disappearing every time the ball was pitched causing the dust to rise. The town team made a poor stand, and the Queenstown boys, who appeared to be very much at home on the pitch, won by 7 wickets. Town Team— lst Innings.
