♦ Canterbury v. Otago. [Per Press Association.] DUNEDIN, Jxn. 15. Scores : —
j Play was resumed at eleven. The { weather was fine, but a stcrm threatened. ' The wicket was dead, in consequence of a I' fall of rain during the night. Cuff and De I Maus resumed play at the wicket,' and Downea opened the bowling. His first Cuff put to leg for 4, bringing 20 up. j In tho next over De Maus cut Lawton I for 4. A single followed to each batsman I and Cuff was clean bowled by Downes ; : 27—3—5. Cooke filled the vacancy. DeMaus i drove Lawton for 2. Cooke played Downea , I well to square leg for 2, and added a single ; ! off Downes, but M'Neil at point took the ' next ball beautifully from De Mauß* bat. -. 32—4—20 saw Eeece supply the vacancy, \ \ and in the next over Cooke was clean I \ bowled by Lawton. Labatt scored a 1 couple for an on-drive off Lawton, ' ■ and then Downes was credited with ' a great over. His first ball took Beese's > bails off, the next ball Wilding returned ! into Downes' hands, the third ball was 1 unproductive, the fonrth ball proved '. fatal to Lawrence, and the last one caw r Bates caught a 1 ; point by M'Neil. Nine I for 34. Ogier was the last man ; Labatt ' drove Lawton for three, but at s this period (a quarter to twelve) 1 play was interrupted by a downpour of r . rain, which drove everyone to shelter, » ' the result of which was to lay the pitch J almost entirely under water, consequently it was determined not to resume play till ' half-past two, to give the wicket a chance to dry.
