Cricket 1889

UNDER THE SOUTHERN CROSS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) A delaide , M onday , M arch 25. 'he second cricket match between New South Wales and eeusland was played at Brisbane on March, 16,13, and It was arranged that New South Wales should play ;eon of the Queenslanders, but it was a pity they did bo , Turner, Ferris, Moses, Richardson, Donnan, and PfcjUie1! could not play, and Sam Jones, backed up by arlton, who may be said to have earned his blue (repre­ latives of N.S.W . in big matches wear light blue caps), left to battle for his colony with a team of juniors, lyliow, Iliddclaton was the only other old player, and he now a long way off A 1. The game turned out to be icedingly interesting, but the odds enabled the Northern ony to secure the victory. Iredale, who went in when wickets were down for 37, and played a splendid game 03 not out, will be heard of in years to come, ailton sustained the reputation he has gained as a rter, but Coningham for Queensland came out with n better figures. This bowler was responsible for tho comSture of many of the mefi who were in Queensland ih Lillywhite in 1887, and he ought to be tried in big >resentative matches. None of the Queenslanders wed remarkable form with the bat. The following the complete scores :— NEW SOUTH WALES. cW.
