Ho knocked up a century in an hour and three-quarters. Warner was dismissed just after Burnup had scored 50. One wicket for 106. Burnup brightened up considerably after Warner’s departure and gave a good all round display. Tho second wicket fell at 170. Taylor and Fane partnered. Play again became quiet, but after luncheon they scored freely. Fane, who compiled his score with excellent cricket, was snapped up at the wickets. Three for 255. Taylor played a magnificent, chanceless innings. Four for 341. Dowson, like his predecessors, thoroughly appreciated the local bowlers, and I dealt unmercifully with them.
