W ith his innings against the M.C.C. Team at Adelaide recently, Clem H ill, the accomplished Australian bats­ man, completed his 10,000 runs in first-class cricket.

Total number of centuries, 26. “ P oin t,” of the Adelaide Observer , justly claims that this is a wonderful record considering that H ill has not yet completed ten years of first-class cricket and the comparatively small amount of cricket in which an Australian can participate. H ill came into the South Australian team as emergency man in November, 1894, just over nine years ago, and made 20 runs against Stoddart’s first team. As a parting gift to the English visitors the budding batsman presented them with 150 not out and 56, Against every subsequent eleven from the mother country, excepting Lord Hawke’s, H ill has made a hundred for South Australia. H e has made p u to date 6,000 runs off English bowling. M.C.C. TEAM IN AUSTRALIA. THE MATCH AGAINST NORTHERN TASMANIA. ( fou rteen th of the tou r .) Played at Launceston on January 29 and 30. Drawn. In this, their second, match in Tasmania the M.C.C. team took the field without Foster, Bosanquet, Braund and Relf, a place being found for Drummond, who had pre­ viously appeared in the side at Ballarat. The game was played on a good wicket, and, the match being restricted to a couple of days, a draw naturally resulted. Hayward gave a splendid display, batting 140 minutes and hitting four 5’s and seventeen 4’s. He might have been stumped when 113, but, apart from that, made no mistake. With Hirst he added 110 runs for the fourth wicket. In the second innings of the home team, Savigny and Douglas made 202 for the first wicket, all eleven of the M.C.C. bowling during the partnership. Savigny played a very fine innings, although he wasbadly missed at mid-off by Lilley when 33, his driving being very good. He hit twenty-one 4’s during the 5 hours he was in. N orthebn T asmania . J.

( fifteen th or the toch .) Played at Melbourne on February 5, 6,8 & 9 . The M.C.C. won by eight wickets. The victory of the visitors by the sub­ stantial margin of eight wickets was not foreshadowed on the opening day, when, in the presence of the Governor-General Victoria scored 269 for four wickets. After the close of play so much rain fell that it was found impossible to proceed with the game on the Saturday, and when play was resumed at 2 o’clock on the Monday the bowlers received great assistance from the ground.
