London, August 5.
The Australian cricketers commenced their match today against eighteen of the Hunslet club at Hunslet, near Leeds. The Home team went in first, and scored 75 runs. The Australians then went, in and were all disposed of for 65, the bowling of the Hunslet men being dead on the wicket, and doing great execution. The weather was showery during the day, and the ground was consequently very dead. August 6.
