Ogier joined Halley and the score mounted to 207, when a Yorker from McClinchy disposed of Halley, who had contributed 16. Moss, Canterbury’s last man, joined Ogier, who, after making a dozen, was caught at long-on by Cowper off McClinchy, the innings closing for 218, Moss not out. New South Wales’ second innings began at 12.30, Cottarn and Cowper facing the bowling of Moss and Halley. Runs came freely, and Wilding and Harman took the bowling.
