BRITANNIA V SHOALHAVEN CRICKET
The return match between these clubs was played on Wednesday last, at Kiama. The weather was very unfavourable to the play, as it had rained heavily on Tuesday afternoon and during the night. At 11 o'clock (Britannia having won the toss) Messrs. G. and S. Turner went to the wickets to respond to the bowling of Messrs Biddulph and Thurgate. Much was expected from the bowling of the former gentleman, but owing to the raw and slippery state of the ground, he was, after a few attempts to place round-armers, obliged to change his mode of attack, and bowl under-arm throughout the game.
In the first innings, G. Turner and A. Gordon were very successful, hitting both bowlers away as they liked, and each placing 31 to his name. The innings ended for a score of 86. Shoalhaven sent in Messrs. Bice and Thurgate to the bowling of G. Turner and F. Fredericks. A. Hyam and W. Gollan were the only two who made a stand in this innings. All out for 51— the Britannias 35 ahead. The Messrs. Turner again went to the wickets. Mr. G. Turner, however, in playing rather loose at Biddulph's first ball, went out leg before wicket. Gordon next took the bat, but with little better success; and the Britannias had the mortification at finding themselves 'out' for 22 runs all told. Everything now seemed in favour of Shoalhaven Messrs. Bice and A. Hyam took the bat— the former scored 16 and the latter 9. Messrs. Kennedy, Biddulph, Thurgate, Hughes, and Gollan going out for 8. After this mishap, J. Monaghan made a gallant attempt to retrieve the fortune of Shoalhaven but it proved fruitless; and he carried his bat out after scoring 13:— 49 for this innings; total, 97.— Kiama winning by 11 runs.
At the conclusion of the game, the players, accompanied by a few friends, proceeded to the Steam Packet Inn, where they partook of an excellent dinner provided by the host Adams. J.L. Biddulph Esq was moved to the chair; and J. Black Esq occupied the vice-chair. After the guests had partaken of a hearty dinner, the Chairman rose and proposed the first toast – “The Queen”, which was followed by a number of other toasts; several songs were sung; and the company, after enjoying a very pleasant evening, separated about ten o’clock.
The game stands now at one and one – the conqueror will come off at Shoalhaven on the 24th of May.
