CRICKET.

SOUTH CANTERBURY v. DUNEDIN. A little before four, South Canterbury tock the field, Neilson (their captain) placing hie men Jthus Fowler, bowler and slip; Baker short stop; Clark, P. H., bowler and slip; Hedley, third man; Rees, point; Neilson, covdr point;‘Stevens, square leg; Hammerslev, mid-on; Cook, long-off; Smith, long-slip; and Fenwick, long-leg,, Alien and Sampson appeared to face the bowling of Cook and Fowler and the batsmen commenced to give the field some work, Allen scoring fast; and making a splendid leg hit for four off Fowler. Shortly afterwards Sampson retired before one from Fowler. 1—6—20. When Reade came in, Neilson relieved Clark, and in his first over Allen was smartly caught behind the wickets hy Baker. 2—12—20. Macfarlane joined Reade, and the two made the stand they were expected to. Reade went in after a while for indiscriminate hitting, but Maofarlan maintained his reputation for careful play, and got his twenty by really good cricket. Change after change of bowling was tried, without effect. Hedley, the left-handed bowler, after bowling round with success, went on with slows, which had nothing to commend them and wafe punished terribly. Reade, when thirty, gave an easy chance to cover point, which Clark positively declined to take. Macfarlan, tempted out by one of Hedley’s, missed it, and, of course, lost his wicket. 3—20—80. Paramur showed his interest in the game by going in for hard hitting, evincing a settled determination to score rapidly. During, the short time'he was before the sticks he gave the field and scorers plenty of work, getting no end oi twos and threes, and making the two best hits of the day, putting Hedley away to square leg for four—clem over the oval fence—and driving Hammersley for a similar number. Baker went on, and his first ball Reade stepped out to, missed, and the telegraph showed 4—55—133. .. Keade, on retumb g, to the pavilion, was loudly applauded from all parts of the ground. Collinson had not been m long, when Paramor was caught in the slips by Clark. 5—42—146. Time was then called. Play was resumed to-day a few minutes after noon. The heavy rain of last night made the ground very dead, but that notwithstanding, the bowling was vastly superior to yesterday’s. Collinson, the not out of yesterday, was joined by Rhodes, and the former by some nice cutting and well placed hits soonfoundhimself in double figures, but when be had got a dozen retired before an easy one from Neilson. 6—12—159. Clark joined Rhodes, who, however, was by the very next ball clean bowled by Neilson. 7—3 —162. The rest of the innings calls for little remark Clark, when he hadmade a couple,'gave an easy chance to Smith, which was not taken, and Tait played a careful innings of 13. For South Canterbury, Steve> s fielded remarkably well at short leg, where yesterday he saved a score of nms. The following are the Dunedin scores in detail:—

At 1.5 p.m. Dunedin again took the field, Stevens and Hedley facing the bowling of Glen and lleade, and Sampson wicket keeping Stevens was unfortunate enough to send one of iteade’s up to point, where Allen was ready for it. I—l—2, Fenwick, after scoring a single, drove lleade right into the hands of Macfarlan at mid-on. 2—l—9* Hedley was afterwards bowled with a full pitch from Glen 34 —17. Baker was then joined by Fowler, and the' two remained together for an hour, when Fowler attempted to run for a hit to point by Baker, but the ball being well fielded and smartly returned by Sampson, he lost his wicket. 4—43—91. Neilson then joined Baker, but-was soon dismissed by Glen. When our reporter left the ground the score stood at five wickets down for 104. Sooth Canterbury. Second Innings.
