Giffen, the South Australian captain, in deciding to go iu first had a great influenoe on the result of this return match, begun at Sydney on January 6 It stead of getting worse, as was expected with a thunderstorm apparently impending, the wicket, slow at the outset, improved, and Jones the South Australians were placed at a great G. Giffen. disadvantage in both innings. New South F. Jarvis Wales had to field first, and so wtll did Turner bov/1 that South Australia were all out for 117. Of these 14 came under the denomination of “ extras,” and of the balance Blinman and Lyons contributed nearly one half. The wicket was still far from easy when New South Wales went in late in the day, and Moses wisely kept hi3 best batsmen reserve for the next morning. Even then the start was not promising, and half the side were out with the total only 85. The pitch had, however, got into perfcct order, and the remaining batsmen punished j the South Australian bowling severely. Moses and Ireland put on 156 for the seventh wicket, and ultimately the total reachad b93, of which the last half of the side had contri­ buted 307. Moses’ J04 was an admirable dis­ play of batting only maired by a difficult chance of stumping at the outset. The second innings of South Australia on January 9 was associated with cruel luck, rain making the bowling almost unplayable. Lyons and Jarvis started for the visitors to wipe off their big deficit, Turner and Coninsjham being entrusted with the bowling. For the first few overs the pitch seemed to play fairly accurately and Lyons scored rapidly; but when the crust of the pitch had been broken the ball began to bump and break in such a treacherous way that the batsmen did not have a show to make runs, though G. Giifen and Reedman offered some resistance. The total only reached 118, and New South Wales thus won by an innings and 158 runs. South Australia was as unfortunate as New South Wales was fortunate in Giffen electing to bat, for the choice meant the loss of the game. The first game at Adelaide was won by South Australia by 277 runs. S o u t h A u s t r a l ia . BOWLING ANA.LY8IS. S outh A u str alia . First Innings. Second Innirgs. B. M. P. W. B.M. R. W.
