CRICKET.

LEVIN v. SHANNON

The above teams met on the recreation reserve on Saturday afternoon, with the result that the I Levin team was defeated by 41 runs. This margin makes the disparity between the teams greater than it really was, though m heklino. Shannon was far away better tfian the local team Levin was unfortunate in having two men run out early m the game <»ving to want of judgment and understanding between the batsmen Tins can be obtained only »'.v steady practice. With the long: gn,ss m the outfield, the ball does not travel as far as (he power of he stroke would lead one to expect and with smart fielding he ball soon finds its way back o the wicket. Levin batted first but made a very poor start, two wickets falling in the first over tor no runs, and soon, with two :norc run ou f, the score read 4 for 11 Broughlon made a cannous 14, and Horn made some nne strokes for his 10, the highest individual score. After lunch, Iremewan and Butterworth opened for Shannon,, and before they were separated thev passed Levin s score. Still they did not appear too confident. Tremewan (-53), Butterworth (lb) and Harris (10) were the chief scorers for Mia.mon. The others made ra-. jner a poor showing, perhaps seeing the hatch was won they did not exert themselves.
