CRICKET.
(PBH PRESS AGENCY.) UNITED CLUB V. NELSON STAR, Nelson, Thursday. Tho cricket match Wellington United Club v. Nelson Star Club took place to-day. Nelson went in first, and were quickly disposed of for 20 runs, the bowling of MoGirr and Dryden being very destructive. Wellington’s first innings closed for 42, 16 of which were made up of byes. Nelson in their second innings, made 38, leaving Wellington 17 to get to win. McGirr and Kutohen went in first, but were immediately cleaned bowled for one. At this juncture of the game rain set in, and the match was given in favor of Wellington on the first innings. In the second innings of the Wellington the bowling of Halliday and Wigzell was particularly good. It is to be hoped that the victory of tho United Club will induce the Wellington interprovincial team to pay Nelson a visit, to play tho annual match. Several of the best Star players refused to play in this match on account of it not being the interprovinoial. This materially affected Nelson’s batting.
