ALL ENGLAND ELEVEN v OAMARU TWENXY-TWO. [PBESS ASSOCIATION TELEGRAM.J OAMARU. January 17. The above matoh was resumed to-day. The weather was again mild. Barlow and Bates, the not outs of the previous day, took their place at the wickets. Oooke sent the first maiden to Barlow. Hewat opened the ball to Bates. Off Hewat's second Bates got a single. Another single, a 5 and a 4 to the same bat followed, but in the next over from Hewat he was nearly bowled, tho ball rolling on to his wicket without removing tho bails. Bates continued to score rapidly, Barlow simply acting on the defensive. Cooke's last two overs proved rather expensive, no lees than 8 runß being credited to Bates. In Cooke's tenth over Bates skied one, which was badly missed by Cox at mid on. Millington changed with Cooke, when Barlow got a single off the new bowler, which brought him into double figure*. Bates' time was come, as he failed to p!ay a good one from Hewat. 3—33—50 was the state of the game when Shrewsbury joined Barlow. This batsman got Millington away to the fence for his first 4. Shrewsbury was then let off by Holmes at point. Moore now relieved Millington. Shrewsbury got Hewat away to leg for a single. Another single and a 4 to the Btonewaller brought the visitors up to the Oamaru total. Shrewsbury, in letting out to one from Mooro, sent it into Balmer's hsnd at leg—4-3—63. Midwinter filled the vacancy, and after a couple of singles Barlow lifted Holmes to the fence for another 4. Midwinter sent an uppish one to the on, Balmer mulling it, two runs resulted. Midwinter kept pegging away at the bowling f ariously, and 80 appeared on the telegraph board, and 90 soon followed. Several singles and a 4 to Midwinter, raised 100 on the tele, graph, amidst applause; Several changes were made in the bowling without effect, as both batsmen seemed well Eet. When the score stood at 115, Midwinter was clean bowled by Hardy, after putting 40 nicely together—s—4o—lls. Scotton wns the new comer. He scored a single and was given out, caught by Walls, a decision that was criticised—6—ll—ll7. Shaw, the English captain, then made his appearanoe, and opened by a 4 hit to the fence, and another couple from both brought 120 up. After the adjournment for lunch Barlow, who had played a pat.ont innings all day, was caught at mid-off by Barley—--7—36—129. Pilling filled the breach, and lifted Hardy to leg for 4. Both bats scoring well raised the eeore from 129 to 146 before a separation was effected, Filling being caught by Cook off Holmes. Peate, last man, wag clean bowled by the first ball from Holmes, the innings dosing for 146, Shaw being not out with 16. Emmett was sick and did not play. Holmes showed the best avenge in bowling, taking three wickets for 21 j Cooke two for 68. Oamaru had 86 runs to get to save a one innings defeat. Shaw started to bowl with the wind, Bates bowling at the lower end. Nicholls was the first to succumb, being caught by Scotton for 2—l—2—s, H. Moore was oanght shortly after—2—2—7. J. Millington filled the breach, and was caught, first ball, by Barlow off Shaw at long-off. Hewat was served likewise by Shaw off Bates. Walls and G. Millington now became partners, the latter playing one on to his wicket for a single. s—l—lo showed when Oooke joined Walls. After a single the former was bowled by Bates—6—l—ll. Snow and Lawry got together. The latter bat scored rapidly and soon reached double figures ; 30 up. At 34 Snow was clean bowled by Shaw—B—2—34. D. Moore started with a brace off Shaw, Lawry sending the same bowler for the same number. The last named was caught in the next over—9—2—37. Finch opened the ball by a couple of singles, Moore spooning one into Shrewsbury's hands at point—lo—4—42. Bice partnered Finch and added 2 and a single when he was clean bowled by Shaw—ll—3—47. Sumpter, the newcomer, lifted Peate nicely to the off for 4, Finch being turned to the right about by Bhaw —l2—2 - 52. Oox was caught at the first ball by Ulyett. R. Balmer was bowled without scoring—l4—o—ss. Ooates snicked one from Bates to leg, and was bowled immediately after by Shaw—ls—l—s 6. Church wag bowled first ball from Shaw. Holmes was served in the same manner by the same bowler. Three wickets in three successive balls to Bhaw. Sumpter was caught by Selby, off Peats—lß—B—s6. Hardy and DeLautour were now together.
