When play started the wicket was distinctly fiery but after lunch it was playing very
much easier. After the tea interval Wyatt and Leyland continued to defy the Australian
attack and at 4.30 the score was 169 for 4 - Leyland 74 and Wyatt 69. The English team,
particularly Leyland and Wyatt are to be congratulated on the way they have regained
control of the game. Wall and O'Reilly have up to the moment borne the brunt of the
bowling, but after their initial successes before lunch they have not reached the same
high standard. Since tea the game has developed into a great struggle and the crowd
have been enthralled watching the duel.

The partnership ended after it had added 156, O'Reilly bowling Leyland, whose
splendid defence had lasted 3 hours and whose innings included 13 fours. Wyatt
followed soon after, being well caught at long off. He took 164 minutes in compiling
his 78 runs, which included 3 sixes and 3 fours.

Allen began with two fine cuts for four off McCabe. Paynter also got busy at
once, driving Grimmett freely.
