CRICKET.
SHEFFIELD SHIELD MATCH. (United Press Association.) ADELAIDE, Nov. 17. In the Sheffield Shield match against Victoria, South Australia, in their second Innings, when stumps were drawn, had lost nine wickets for 371 — A. Richardson 52, Wainwright 56, Scott 20, Grimmctt (not out) 26. The weather was fine and tiie wicket good. Pritchard and the two Richardsons played correct, lively cricket and thoroughly tested the bowling. Wainwright was forceful, and with the help of Grimmctt kept life tired field and Irunrllers busy, defying many bowling changes.
WAITOA BEATS MORRINSVILLE.
In this match the Waitoa team played three men short, and Morrinsville had to lake two or three junior substitutes to make up their team. Both teams evidently had had little practice, and the display was by no means brilliant. Waitoa baited first and their eight men were disposed of for the small score of 32. When Morrjnsvillc went in it looked as if they were sure of an easy victory, but as seven of their men failed to score and none of them could get "set,” they were all disposed of for 25 runs.
