SOUTH TARANAKI PLAY. REVIEW OF WEEK’S MATCHES. SEVERAL GOOD PERFORMANCES. Ideal weather conditions prevailed on Saturday for the third series of matches in the second round of the South Taranaki senior cricket competition. . There were several good batting performances, pride of place going to H. Barker (Old Boys), who was. undefeated with a century to his credit. Lay (Old Boys) and T. Young (Hawera) passed the half-century. The bowlers did not secure such good averages as
has been the case during the previous few Saturday’s play, Crombie (Hawera) being the most successful, though W. Young (Hawera) secured the “hat trick.” The . fielding in both matches played was of a very high standard. Only two matches were played on Saturday, the High School-Eltbayn game being postponed. Hawera secured a three-point win by 10 wickets over Kaponga at Kaponga, while Old Boys defeated Stratford by 90 runs on the first innings. A total of 44 wickets fell for 570 runs, an overage of 13.09 per wicket, a slight increase on the previous Saturday’s average. The position of the teams is: —
OLD BOYS v. STRATFORD. Old Boys had no difficulty in defeating Stratford at Hawera in a one innings game. Thanks to an unbeaten century by 11. Barker and a dashing 67 by Stan Lay, Old Boys were able to declare their innings closed with the total of 211 for the loss of four wickets. The Old Boys first wicket fell at ’ six, and their second wicket fell when Chee vers was run out for 19. Lay and W. Barker then became associated in a third wicket partnership which yielded 118 runs. Lay especially was aggressive, and scored at double the rate of his partner. He treated all the bowlers, with the exception of Cover, facing whom he was not too comfortable, with scant respect, being especially, severe on Irving, off whose single over 23 runs were- scored, including two magnificent sixes to square leg off successive balls. He eventually succumbed to a tempting ball from Go ver, which was well held by Collins. His score of 67 included two sixes and seven fours. H. Barker gave one of the finest exhibitions of solid batting yet seen in Hawera. Though his .was not a brilliant innings, he did riot give the semblance of a.chance, arid treated the spectators to delightful cricket. His score of 102 not out included eight boundary hits. . When he his century and the score was Old Boys declared.
i Cover was the only Stratford bowler I treated with any respect, his two wici kets costing only 25 runs. Gatton, with one for ’ 24, secured the other wicket. Eight bowlers were tried by Stratford, 30 overs being sent down between them. Only one was a maiden over. Hamilton (25) and F. Young (33) gave Stratford an excellent start, 48 runs [ being on-the board before the first wicket' fell. The remaining wickets fell very cheaply, however, only Gover (13) and Gatton (17 not out) making a stand, the last wicket falling for 121 runs, a deficit of 30 runs. The wickets were evenly divided between Hayes (three for 32), Cheevers (two for 28), H. Barker (one for 13) and Gane (one for 8). The remaining three batsmen were run out. 11. Barker, with a great catch low down, in slips, was responsible for the dismissal of F. Young. . HAWERA v.; KAPONGA. The Hawera team gained its first three-point win irv defeating Kaponga at Kaponga by ten wickets on the call of time. A feature of the match was the batting of T. Young and the bowling of W. Young, the latter securing the "'hat trick” by dismissing Pascoe, Hill and Hanson. Hawera had first use of the bat and the score was 119 when the last wicket fell. T. Young was the only batsman to make a stand. He gave one of his best displays this season, batting soundly, and but for the long grass in the outfield his score would have been considerably larger. He gave only one chance, an easy catch being missed when he was in his fifties. His score of 62 was composed of a six off Jefcoate, four fours, two twos and 36 singles. The remaining batsmen did little, though each made some addition to the score. Mackenzie (10 not out), was the only other batsman to gain double figures. Twist (four for 44) and Jefcoate (two for 27) bore the brunt of the attack. Sadler (one for four), S. Betts (one for 15) and Harrison (one for 19) also met with success.
Kaponga in the first innings was dismissed for 61 runs. Harrison, who topscored with 14, bore a eharmed life. V. Betts (11) and Plunkett (10 not out) also gained double figures. Twist (S) landed a good six off Fairweather. The wickets were evenly divided between W. Young (three for seven), Fairweather (three for 17), Giblin (two for 24) and Jennings (one for 10). The Kaponga men, who followed-on, in their second innings were dismissed for GO, the last wicket just failing to play out time. S. Betts top-scored with 15, his total including two fine sixes off Fairweather. V. Betts (12, including a six off Crombie) and Sadler (11) were the only other batsmen to make a stand, the remaining wickets falling cheaply to Crombie (six for 14), who was bowling a good length. Giblin (two for 10) and Malone (one for nine) secured the other wickets. Requiring three runs to win and with time for only one over, Mackenzie hit Tonkin’s second ball to the boundary and gave Ilawera a ten wicket victory. Both teams fielded very well, the outstanding player being Sadler (Kaponga), who was responsible for the dismissal of four batsmen. A feature of Hawera’s first innings was the number of singles scored, no less than 87 runs of a total of 119 being singles. HAWERA WEDNESDAY v. COMBINED At Ilawera on Wednesday a very close game with an exciting finish was witnessed at the meeting of the Hawera Wednesday A and a team composed of Saturday players, the Saturday team emerging the victors by three wickets in a two innings game. Some excellent performances were given by the bowlers, the most notable being those of Worrall (Wednesday), who in the two innings took ten wickets for 27 runs, and Morrison (Saturday), who finished with an average of seven wickets for 14 runs. Eight of Worrall’s victims and six of Morrison’s were clean bowled. In the first innings of the Wednesday team the batsmen could make no headway against the bowling of Morrison and were all out for 28 runs, no batsman reaching double figures. Morrison in six overs took five wickets for six runs. On two occasions he took two wickets with successive balls, on one occasion missing the “hat trick” by only one ball, three wickets falling in four balls. Clarke (two wickets for two runs) and Pacey (three wickets for 20 runs) claimed the other five wickets. In Wednesday’s second innings the
last wicket fell at 95. Sargent topscored with a well played 20. Worrall (16) and Stevens (12) both made useful stands. Miller and McFadyen (10 each) were the only other double figure scorers. Emmitt (three for nine) was the most successful bowler in this innings, Morrison (two for 8), Clement (two for 12) and Pacey (three for 33) claiming the remaining wickets. Saturday’s first ’ innings closed for 93. Sagar played a very steady innings for 37 and was ably supported by Clement (15), Lewis and Morrison (10 each). The remainder could do little against the good bowling of Worrall (five for 15) and Shaw (three for nine). Stevens (one for 13) and Sargent (one for 25) were the only other bowlers to meet with any success. Requiring 31 runs to win Saturday in their second innings lost their first six wickets for 18 runs. Beamish and Pacey, however, made a stand, the seventh wicket falling for 26. Pacey and Morrison then scored the remaining five runs necessary for a win without any difficulty, and gave Saturday a win by three wickets. Worrall again bowled well, taking five wickets for 12 runs. McFadyen (two for 16) took the other wickets. Grindlay (Wednesday) kept wickets very well, his stumping of Pacey off Stevens being a brilliant piece of work. HAWERA WEDNESDAY B v. KAPUNI The Hawera Wednesday B team were defeated by eight wickets by Kapuni on Wednesday. In their first innings Wednesday B were dismissed for 61, the bulk of the runs being made by Dunlop (15), H. Guise (12) and Brough (11 not out), the remaining batsmen doing little against the bowling of Stockbridge (five for 24) and Young (three for 21). Cosgrove (one for two) and H. Whalen (one for four) were also taking wickets. Kapuni in their first innings made two runs less than their opponents, Atkins (19) and Blackwell (16) being the top-scorers. The wickets were divided between Earleyman (four for I's), M. Guise (two for nine) and Gribble (two for IS). In their second innings Wednesday declared with four wickets down for 72 runs. Grindlay (27 not out) played a very fine innings and was ably supported by Zadoni (18) and L. Guise (11). Lord (two for, 11), 11. Whalen (one for six) and Miller (one for 15) claimed the wickets. Kapuni had no difficulty in scoring the runs required for a win, with the loss of only two wickets, Atkins (42 not out, including a six and five fours), and Duncan (46 not out, including five fours) rapidly scoring the necessary runs. Barleyman (two for 36) claimed the only two wickets that fell, taking them with successive balls.
