The fielding was smart, and Reese bowled admirably, mixing his deliveries judiciously. Bennett retired after 11 oven, owing to an old injury to his leg, Sumcrviile substituting hi::!. At one stage Sner.don's average was two wickets for three runs. New Zealand's batting was unattractive, unenterprising, and colorless. Scores: VlCTOßlA.—l'irst Innings.

A CRITICISM. Sydney, January 21. . Tlie llcraid, reviewing the Board of Control decision, says that miles* tin) Board is approached before any invitations to foreign players of international e standing are distributed, serious complication* may arise.

The following is the toam to represent Te Ilaereere in their cricket match against lnglewood at Ingle.vood to-day: V. Robertson, Hasell, Avery, Morey, Moves. B. Simpson, Sumner Gwillim, Stocker, Bain, ar.d Legg. . t ■
