SOUTH AUSTRALIA BEATEN BY 239 RUNS SECOND INNINGS COLLAPSE United r.A. —By Telegraph—Copyright ADELAIDE, Tuesday. The English cricketers today won their match against South Australia by 239 runs. When stumps were drawn yesterday England had scored 168 and 416, and South Australia 259 and 40 for five wickets (Richardson, not out, 1), the visitors thus having a lead of 325. When play was resumed this morning the remainder of South Australia’s wickets fell cheaply on a soft pitch. This was affected by rain, which caused an hour’s delay. Barratt and Allom reaped a harvest of easy wickets, and the local side’s innings closed for 86.
