THE ENGLISH CRICKETERS. [PER TELEGRAPH.]
Oamaeu, yesterday. — Our correspondent wires : — The English cricketers arrived by express train shortly after twelve, and after luncheon were driven to the cricket ground. The weather was glorious, and a large number of tradesmen are observing a half holiday. Shaw won the toss, and took the field. Snow and Rice appeared to face the bowling of Peate and Midwinter, the field having taken up the same positions as in Dunedin. The local team's wickets fell like nine pins, first ten men only scoring twelve runs.
