CRICKET.

ENGLAND v. NEW SOUTH WALES.

COLLAPSE OF THE HOME TEAM

BY TELEGKAI'II- -ritESS ASSOCIA'.ION. Received Novembsr 24, 6.18 p.m. SYDNEY, November 23. The first innings of the Englishmen closed for 304. There was dull muggy weather, and a temporary change of wind brought up rain, which stopped play for ten minutes, but did not affect the wicket. Barnes was bowling with a splendid length, and had the batsmen tied up from the start. He came out with a really fine average. Diamond was dismissed in the first few minutes, and those who followed were over-cautious, and the next two wickets went clown with only 14 runs on the sheet, of which Trumper contributed 9. The weather cleared and was fine before the reception. After lunch Trumper and Hopkins made a stand, the former batting brilliantly and brought up 75 before Braund brought about his downfall by a smart catch in the slips. Hopkins was caught precisely in a similar manner by Hutchings a few minutes later. Barnes had now captured 4 wickets for 12. "'he remainder of the New South Wales wickets fell rapidly, although McCartney and Blaxland 'stonewalled for a time. About 15,000 persons were present. Jones, the English captain, decided to bat instead of sending the New South Wales team in again. Before scoring, Jones, who had gone in with Fane, gave Blaxland a chance in the slips, which was accepted. Fane played the bowling with the utmost freedom, and had rattled on 38 when he had the hard luck to be run out. Braund and Hutchings made a long and serviceable stand, each scoring steadily, but the excellent bowling of McCartney and Noble made the batsmen cautious and was the means of keep-

[ ing down the runs. Hutching?, however, at times indulged in some hard: hitting at anything that was looseRhodes played a slow and patient, innings. When the century was hoisted, Hutchings went out to Johnson, and, missing the .ball, was.clean bowled, after giving a good, display. Scores:— t ENGLAND—First Innings.
