On Monday the picnic organised by the New South Wales Association for the pleasure of their visitors took place. Many supporters of the game, and players also, joined the party, which left the wharf in a Government launch a little before eleven o’clock. Mr. Smith, suffering from a gathering in his ear, did not venture out. Shrewsbury and Lohmann were also absent, but the rest of the Englishmen were there, and certainly enjoyed themselves thoroughly, the arrangements being most per­ fect for all. SECOND MATCH.—v. NEW SOUTH WALES. F ir s t D a y — F r id a y , N o v e m b e r 11. The second match of the tour \vas to have been begun on the holiday on Wednesday, Nov. 9, but continuous rain had made the Association ground at Moore Park so terribly sloppy that the game was postponed until Friday. The turf was even then in a very soddened state, but it was decided to proceed with the match. New South Wales had a first-class team, the only notable absentee being Jones, who at the last moment signified his inability to play. A substitute fielded for him for atime, but Davis, the emergency man, batted. McDonnell won the toss, and wisely sent the visitors to the wickets. Shrews­ bury and Ulyett started the innings to the bowling of Turner and Ferris. The Yorkshire- man after smiting up 9was stumped. Shrews­ bury continued to <play with great care and judgment, and made most of the runs. The remainder of the team, though, were all abroad to Turner and Ferris, and when Pilling was clean bowled, the total had reached 49. Seven men were clean bowled, four of them failing to score. The home team began badly. Allen was caught off Lohmann, and Moses, who did so well against Shaw’s team last year, was stumped, so that two wickets were down for no runs. Richardson played steadily, while Turner hit out, and Pougher took the ball from Briggs with success, soon clean bowling both men. Bannerman and McDonnell, however, gave great trouble, McDonnell vigorously lifting one ball over the boundary. Bannerman was the first to leave, and Garrett succeeded him. McDonnell continued to punish Pougher, and Briggs was tried again. The change was effective, as McDonnell was caught in the slips and Garrett bowled, both by Briggs. Davis and Hiddlestone carried the score to 80 (for seven wickets), and then stumps were drawn. The attendance was very good. S e c o n d D a y — S a t u r d a y , N o v e m b e r 12. During the night more rain fell, and the ground was by no means improved. There were a fair number of people present. The end of the Welshmen’s innings was not far off. Lohmann bowled Hiddlestone and also got Davis lbw. Burton and Ferris took the score to 94, when Briggs bowled the latter. Lohmann bowled with crreat success through the innings, and not even McDonnell was able to take liberties with him. The Englishmen, with 45 runs to the bad, sent in Shrewsbury and Lohmann. They played with extreme care until 10 runs were up, when Turner got Shrewsbury’s leg in front. Ulyett and Loh­ mann infused a little life into the game, and the aggregate, when the former was bowled, was 36. The rest of the team were, however, powerless to play Turner, who was very puzzling on a wicket that suited him to a nicety. No one reached double figures barring Lohmann, who batted remarkably well, and was only bowled towards the end of the innings. New South Wales wanted 22 to win, and McDonnell and Allen soon knocked off the necessary runs without losing their wickets. The Englishmen thus lost by ten wickets, a defeat due to the extraordinary bowling of Turner and Ferris, and the hitting of McDonnell. Turner and Ferris maintained the reputation they earned last year of being perhaps the best living bowlers on a sticky or wet wicket—Turner, especially, was well nigh unplayable. McDonnell demonstrated that his powers of punishing are equal to those of any other Colonial. S h r e w s b u r y ’ s T e a m . First Innings Second Innings.
