There was a slight shower : 111 the afternoon, but the wicket is 1 wearing well. t When stumps were drawn on Sati urilay the visitors had made 107 runs i for two wickets in their second innings, I tiie nut out men being Duleensinhji ■’ (3-S) arid Woolley (.35.). Brilliant and entertaining cricket - was seen on the resumption of England’s innings. Duleepsinhji carried r score to 54 and was then stumped ■ off Grimmett. f Turnbull and Worthington went ; cheaply. Then Nickol-s and Woolley J became associated in an attractive ? partnership which produced 136 runs. WooUey made his 146 in 20S minutes. ’•He hit 15 fours and one six and played • a .. brilliant and forceful innings. Nichols was equally vigorous, but less J polished. He was in for 13 4 minutes ' j and hit six fours. L ; Earle hit Grimmett for six three i times in one over. i The visitors had made 416 before their innings terminated, leaving l South Australia the task of making | 326 to win. Grimmett and Wall, the test-match bowlers, finished with poor averages, both having proved expensive. The South Australians began their second innings disastrously. lione and Harris, the opening batsmen, took score to 28. Then they and Pritchard were all dismissed without addition t<» the score. "Whitefield and Loncrgan lost their wickets soon afterward. An appeal against the light was I ; upheld 15 minutes before the time for drawing stumps. !
