1860/61 Match 6 - 4/4/1861 : Shoalhaven C.C vs Britannia C.C

Report

The match between the district of Shoalhaven and eleven of the Britannia Club Kiama, which was to have been played on Wednesday, had to be postponed, in consequence of the wet, until Thursday afternoon. The weather was very unfavourable, the Kiama eleven had to travel to Shoalhaven through torrents of rain which continued for two days, making the ground in a very unfit state for playing. The game was commenced by the Kiama players, and their innings, as the score will show, was a very short one, they only making twenty seven runs. The Shoalhaven players then went in, and scored 62, so that the game was all but won by Shoalhaven in their first innings. The batting on the part of the Kiama players was very inferior to what has been displayed in any of their previous matches, and the round-arm bowling of J. L. Biddulph, appeared to puzzle them a good deal. Their fielding was, however, far superior to that of Shoalhaven.

After the game was over, a scratch match was played between the two elevens of one inning each, which resulted in favour of Kiama with eighteen runs to spare.

THE DINNER:- After the game was over, the players and a few friends repaired to the Host Hyam's, to partake of the dinner, which di great credit to the establishment, and to which the company did ample justice. Altogether the affair passed off with great eclet.

The return match will be played in Kiama, on the 24th instant.
