CRICKET.

CANTERBURY y/ WELLINGTON. By Telegraph—Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, Jan. 19. The twenty-first match between teams representing Wellington and Canterbury was commenced at Lancaster Park, this afternoon, when the weather was fine, but a strong south-west wind was blowing which made matters rather uncomfortable for spectators and players alike. The showers of rain which fell the previous . day and during the night ceased towards midday, and the wind had the effect of drying up the Wicket, though it was still on the soft side, while the outfield was fair.
