CRICKET.

NEW ZEALAND v. THE WORLD. Such was the grand appellation of the Association match commenced on Saturday last, but it really signified that the cricketers who had learnt the game in New Zealand would contend with those who had acquired their knowledge elsewhere. Mr,Seoretan won the toss, and naturally enough took the innings, as the afternoon was all that could bo desired for the game and the wicket was good. Messrs Seoretan and Stevens first appeared, and commenced to score freely, the latter, however, was not in good form, _as several outs went dangerously high near third man andean easy catch at short slip was neatly dropped. After the first eight overs the scoring became slower, but it was not until 53 appeared on the board that Seoretan gave a chance to Oottorill at long leg. The retiring batsman 'gave one chance to short slip while he was compiling his score of 33, which was chiefly made up by a 4, four 3’s, and three 2’s. D. Ashby did not stay long, 1 b w being the umpire’s inexorable fiat. Two wickets for 61. E. Wilding made 3 before he played on. Three for 64. E. 0. J. Stevens was next to follow, being bowled by W. Frith. Four for 71, of which the retiring batsman made 28, by three 3’s, four 2’s, and singles. F. H. Morice failed to stop his first ball, a beauty from W. Frith, but B. T. MacDonnoll on this occasion was determined to stay. At 84, however, C. 0, Oorfo hit a half volley from W. Frith into his wicket. A. 0. Wilson filled the vacancy, and a good stand was made, but several catches by McDonnell were allowed to reach the ground safely. At last a ball from W. Frith found its way into McDonnell’s wicket, but not before his score had reached 35, made by a 5, a good on-drivo, a 4, three 3’s, three 2’s, &c. The end soon camo now, the last two wickets falling tor as many runs, the total being 131, Wilson being not out for 13, which includes two good square leg hits for 3 each. A few minutes remained for the New Zealanders to commence their innings, which cost them two wickets for 13 runs. The fielding of the New Zealanders was not good, seven or eight catches being missed which should have easily been taken. The bowling was steady throughout. The following is the score

Tho match between the second eleven of the U. 0.0.0. and the Woolston 0.0, was finished on Saturday last, and resulted in a draw, greatly in favour of tho former club. The U. 0.0.0. put together the fine score of 335, to which tho chief contributors were— Ross with 63, Longden and Loughnan with 51 each, Millton 46, Perceval 42, Redmayno 29, and Fenwick 22. The Woolston sadly felt the lose of Bamford, who was unable to play on the first day of the match from a damaged thumb, the rest of their bowling being very weak. The Woolston 0.0. in their firot innings put together 87, Monck making 26 and A. Oogan 21. Four wickets were down in their second innings for 60 runs, Easton having scored 18 and Pavitt 14.

C. ground, and the home team were again victorious. The 0.0.0. went in first, and the wickets want down very fast before tho bowling of Blair and E. Prabble, who were both well on the wicket. Washer was the only man who obtained double figures, and the innings closed for a total of 53. Probblo got four wickets for 17 runs, and Blair five for 29. The Probbleton men then went in, and tried hard to make up the required number of runs, but without success. J. Taylor and J. W. Prebble made the best stand, and played very carefully for 16 and 9 respectively. E. Prebble knocked up 12 in wonderful style, and G. Taylor stayed in a long time for his 6 not out. The rest of the men only scored one among them. Tho wickets were got as follows :—Yeats two for 2 rune, Caygill three for 9 runs, Wheatley three for 14 runs, Marshall one for five runs.

The scores were — Press, 78 and 66; Sunnyside, 28 and 33 ; tho former thus winning by one innings and 17 runs. The bowling on both sides was good, that of Costley and W. G. Ataok being too much so for the Sunnyside batsmen. Tho principal scorers for tho Press were Ashbolt 9 and 13, Oostley 18 and 3, Brunt 21 not out and 1, Board 11 and 15. None of the Sunnyside reached double figures, tho highest being Heslop 9. Tho return match between tho Addington and Excelsior Clubs was played on Saturday last, and again resulted in favour of tho Addington Club. Addington went first to the wickets, and wore soon diiposed of for tho small score of 42, the bowling of Parkyns and Bmpscn for tho Excelsior being well on the spot. The innings of the Excelsior team was a very brief one, Mayne, for Addington, working sad havoc and getting seven wickets for 12 runs. The scores were—Addington, first innings, 42 ; second, 105. Excelsior, first innings, 26. O. Strange 17 and 27, W. Lodge 26, and J. No yin 15 were top scorers for Addington ; H. Wenlock 11 being tho highest scorer for the Excelsior. Time did not allow a second innings for the Excelsior

Club ; the match was, therefore, won by Addington by 16 runs on the first innings, A match between elevens of the Bangiora and Sefton Clubs was played at Balcairn on Saturday. The visitors from Bangiora in their first innings scored 100, the highest scorers being E. B. Good a quarter of a century, Pickard 15, and Cnmberworth 15. The Sefton men made 13 and 28 ) total, 41; thus the Bangiora Club won by an innings and 69 runs. The bowling of Pickard and Good against the Sefton team was very fatal to the wickets.

A match was played at Papacul between the Papanui C.O. and the second eleven of the U.O.C.C. on November 6th and last Saturday, and resulted in a victory to the former club by three wickets. The following is the score : —U.C.0.0., first innings, 81; second, 56; total, 137. Papanui, first innings, 87; second, 52, with three wickets to fall; total, 139.
