( f i r s t o f t h bt o u r .) The Australians commenced their first match in South Africa at Johannesburg, on October 11. The South African team, who went in first, at luncheon time, thanks to the good cricket of Llewellyn and Tancred, had scored 179 for one wicket, which had been increased to 4‘28 for seven by the end of the day. On the second morning ‘26 were added for the last three wickets, making a total of 454. In spite of the good scores of Duff, Hill and Trumper, the Australians had to follow on, being 158 in arrear. In their second attempt Hill was in his best form, and Darling was able to declare with 372 up for seven wickets. With 215 to win, the South Africans had made 101 for the loss of four good batsmen when play finally ceased. The result, therefore, was a draw. A l l S o u th A f u ic a .

Another draw was the result of tbe second match, played at Pretoria on October 15, 16 and 17. The Transvaalers batted first, with, in the result, a total of 462, the innings last­ ing till the second morning. J. 11. Sinclair was the chief contributor with 108. Shalders scored 77, Tancred 70 and Smith 50. In their turn the Australians made 392, of which Trumper was responsible for 218 not out. The South Africans, thanks mainly to Hathorn’s 74 and Smith’s 71 not out, were able to close their second innings at 201 for eight wickets. Left with 272 to win, the Australians had got 158 for the loss of three batsmen, when the game came to an end. THE SECOND MATCH AGAINST SOUTH AFRICA. ( t h i r d o f t h et o u r . ) Played at Johannesburg on October 18, 20 and 21. In this match the Australians were seen to better advantage, winning by 159 runs, although 65 on the first innings. Kotze, the fast bowler who came over here with the South African team last year, Middleton, a member of the first South African team, and Anderson represented South Africa in place of Taberer, Thornton and Rowe. The chief features of the cricket on the South African side were the batting of Sinclair and the bowling of Llewellyn. Armstrong was most successful of the Australian batsmen. His 208 for once out was a great performance. Saunders, bowling at the finish, had most to do with the South Africans decisive defeat, taking seven of the ten wickets in their second innings at a cost of only 34 runs. A u stralian s .
