WAIRARAPA CRICKET

CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHES LAST SATURDAY’S RESULTS. MODERATE SCORING. The Wairarapa Cricket Association continued its senior and junior matches on Saturday under pleasant conditions until late in the afternoon, when a southerly gale sprang up, making the light very bad. On this account stumps in the Red Star-Old Buys match were drawn about 5.40 p.m., the Star batsmen having difficulty in sighting the ball. SENIOR CHAMPIONSHIP RED STAR v OLD BOYS. The Old Boys and Red Star teams commenced a match on the Park Oval. Old Boys (one player short) batted first and made 188, Alexander (five 4’s and a 6), Roach (six 4’s), Ryan (two 4’s and two 3’s), Logan (a 6 and three 4’s) and McPherson (three 4’s) batting particularly well for their runs.
