P. Whitehead and J. Landels added 49 for the last wicket, a Nelson record, in better than even time, and Whitehead’s final total of 41 was the result of good batting. The fast bowler, N. Ackroyd, was the most successful Christ's College bowler, taking four wickets for 53. A long, patient innings of 57 by J. Lawson, for Christ's College in 196 minutes dominated the afternoon's play and put his side beyond any danger of defeat R.
