CRICKET.

—— t '■ - ■- ■■ .:-'■ .;:;;•■;..QiiEyiiopiy. Taita-,) ■,■]■-, ;> The abovo match was played at Grey town yesterday in Steward's paddock. The ifeather- was delightful for cricket, a ■slight breeze making it very pleasant for all present. A first-class pitch had been preparod, the rain of Sunday night making it rather lively. Messrs Udy and Fitzmorris were umpires, and Messrs 0, Burt and Wickerson scorers. Mr W. Oudby captained the visiters and Mr Honaldson the homo team. There was a good attendance of spectators who watched the game with interest. Oudby won tho toss and elected to take tho field, Udy and Eonaldson facing tha bowling of G, Welch and Cudby. Cudby's first over produced two runs, one to each batsman, but in Welch's first over Eonaldson was bowled, 1-4-8. fl. Hawke filled the vacancy, but the bowling could not be taken liberties with, consequently runs came very Blowly. The pair brought the score up to 19 when Weloh found Udy'a stumps, 2-19-4. Cuff took Udy's place and after scoring one run lost his partner—ft very foolish run out, 3—22--13. Day was next man in and commenced to score immediately, the field being kept particularly lively, one over producing six runs. Day presently skied one of Cudby's which Judd at long-on safely held. 4-33—7. Mnguire joined Cuff (who was playing very carefully), but only added two singles when he was bowled by Welch. 6-37-2. W. Say well was next man in, but after adding four was clean bowled by Cudby, 6-44-2, Webßtef next stepped to the crease, added twb singles and retired, Welch scattering his

baila. 7-47—2.

•:~.G. Welch and Mason faced the bowling of Ronaldson and Cuff. In the former's Brßt Welch was very smartly stumpod by Udy. 1-0-0. Judd took Welch's place, and from Cuff's third ball his middle stump was displaced. 2—l—o. Harris was next man in, and ought to have been run out in Bonaldson's first, over, the ball being badly returned, but in hia next he had revenge by bowling Mason a regular trimmer, B—7-2, ,Cudby joined Harris, but the partnership was severed by Cuffs .first ball, the latter being bowled, 4—7—2. Pringle .was next man in, but the bowling was not to be trifled with, Eonaldson having sent down four maidens in succession /for li wicket, The pair, -however, managed to add 8 to the score, when one from itouald-: son dispersed Cudby's stumps. 5—15-0. Brown took his Captain's place, but his partner was shortly after run out.

Greylowu with 26 to the • good, com-; menced their second innings with Palmer and Gi Sayweil to the holding of Cudby and Welch'. The first over proved : very ' disastrous for Greytown;' . both Sayweil and Cuff being bowled 1 aud'2'forO.' Udy partnered Palmer and commehbed by cutting Welch nicely for 2, but whs run out after adding B'mora. : 3-11-5. Hawko next wont in, but Palmer was directly after caught by Daysh. 4—ll—l. ltonaldson then stepped in, but immediately walked out, bowled by Cudby. s—ll—o. W. Saywell next went in, and the play became very monotonous, Cudby's 6 overs only producing 2 runs, taking 3 wickets, aud Welsh 5 overs, 5 runs, aud 1 wicket. Hawko put one to short leg, .which Welch hold.,'- ; 6-12-1.;- Maguire filled the vacancy, and Sayweil welcomed-' him by driving Cudby fo.i 2, aud then cut him for 1, but waß shortly after bowled by Welch. ,7-21—3,. Day then went in, but'immediately after lost Maguire, bowled Cudby. 8—21—4. Webster did not stop long with Day, as a■' trimmer removed his bails 9-24—0. C. Hollard, lust man only added 1 when he was caught by Pringle off Cudby. 10-25—1. Taitai with 52 to win sent in Daysh and Mabey to the bowling of Ronaldson and (Juff, In the first over Mabey was cleanly bowled by Ronaldson, I—l—o.

Mason then went in, but Harris; was bowled by Eoualdson will) a slow in his next over 9-16-0, Russell last man then stepped in but only 2 mure were added, when another slow from.Ronaldson took his bails. 10—19—1, Greytown thus winning the match with 35 runs to spare. The cjjiof feature in tbo visitors play was the offectivo bowling of Cudby and G, Welch, and if the fielding had been anytime like as good the home team's score in the Ist innings would have been considerably loss, howevor, they mado amends in the second inniugs when the fielding was particularly good. Tbu Greytown team retained their reputation in the field, every man being well on tho spot, the backing up allowing wonderful improvement, the bowling,-of Cuff and Ronaldson as usual proving very destruc-' 1 tivo. The usual cheers were exchanged kf;the; conclusion of. tho match, The following aro the scores : GREYTOWN. ' 1 Ist innings. 2nd innings'. ' Ronaldson, bG.
