M ar . 26, 1903. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 37 LORD HAWKE ’S TEAM IN NEW ZEALAND AND AUSTRALIA. THE HAWKE ’S BAY MATCH (XV.). ( seventh of the tour .) Played at Napier on January 10, 12 and 13. Lord Hawke’s Team won by an innings and 198 runs. In this match Albert Trott, who had been coaching the Hawke’s Bay players, appeared against the Englishmen, but it was decidedly not his day, although he managed to take 6 wickets. He bowled all through the innings, and 225 runs were hit off him. It may be stated that he was not fortunate in the way of catches, and that the ground was very small. The New Zealanders, with the excep­ tion of Lusk, who played remarkably well, could do very little with Hargreave’s bowl­ ing, and were out for a small total. There was some very fine batting when the English­ men went in. Burnup and Warner put up 100 for the first wicket, and when stumps were drawn on the first innings the total was 228 for five wickets, Bosanquet being not out 22. Next morning Bosanquct played beauti­ ful cricket, being very severe on Trott, and in the end he had the pleasure of securing his hundred. Thompson also played excellent cricket. The New Zealanders, with a heavy balance against them, had lost ten wickets for 112 when stumps were drawn, and the rest were soon dismissed on tho third morning. L ord H aw ke ’ s T eam .

( eighth of the tou r .) Played at Wellington on Jan. 15, 16 and 17. Lord Hawke’s Team won by ten wickets. There was great excitement at Wellington by this match, and some seven thousand people came to see the game on the final day, which was made a public half-holiday. The home team began so badly, with five wickets down for 58, that there seemed a probability of the usual innings defeat. But there en­ sued a really splendid partnership between Tucker and Hickson, producing 134 runs in two hours and a-half. It was an unusual experience for the English bowlers to be mastered, and the spectators were wildly delighted with the success of their men, who both well deserved all the applause that they received. Thanks chiefly to them, the total was good. But so well did Burnup and Fane play that when the second wicket of the English fell the total was 10G, and the New Zealanders looked like having a very long outing. But the success of the Englishmen may be said to have ended here, and the innings only produced a few more runs than that of their opponents. A good match seemed certain when the first few New Zealand batsmen in the second innings did very well indeed ; but the tail crumpled up, and the Englishmen were left with only 96 to win, a task which was accomplished by Burnup and Warner without being separated.

( ninth of the tou r .) Played at Greytown on January 20 and 21. Lord Hawke’s Team won by an innings and 80 runs. This match was chiefly noticeable for tho very fine cricket played by Dowson, who dwarfed all the rest of the side. It was not particularly easy to make runs, for the wicket was matting stretched over concrete, and the ball did very curious things at times. For the New Zealanders, Madnen and Nicholls batted well, but, for the most part, the players were hopelessly outclassed. Bosanquet made seven catches at slip, and at the wicket Whatman stumped six men and caught one. Hargreaves bowled uncommonly well. L ord H aw ke ’ s T eam . B. J. T.

( ten th of the tour .) Played at Blenheim on Jan. 23 and 24. Lord Hawke’s team won by nine wickets. The Marlborough Team fielded with eighteen men, and on a difficult wicket they kept several of the Englishmen very quiet. Dowson’s innings was the chief feature of the game ; he was lucky in being missed, but to make runs it was necessary to take risks. The home team were exceedingly weak in batting.
