Victoria (11/14) vs South Australia (10/12)
Melbourne Cricket Ground -
31 Dec, 2 -4 January 1892-93
Second Innings
Heavy showers delayed action on day three until after tea, so South Australia had to wait before finishing off Victoria, and SA managed to reach 12-0 after their five overs. G Giffen was again the first casualty, falling for just 8, trapped L.B.W. by H Trumble. JC Reedman managed a poor 14, also L.B.W., thanks to RW McLeod to put SA on 39-2.
After JJ Lyons (37) was caught and bowled by H Trumble, A Jarvis would again be the man to beat as he 46 before J Carlton took his stumps, and it was 126-4. Sadly for South Australia, a similer story to the first innings was to unfold.
AH Jarvis (21, L.B.W. Carlton's second of the over) and EJ Hiscock (6, st. McLeod) couldn't last and SA went from 108-3 at Lunch on day four to 180 all out. With a lead of only seven runs, JH Tardiff (3), GT Parkin (0), and J Noel (0) would follow Hiscock back to the pavilion without adding any runs, leaving H Blinman (24) and E Jones (17*) to put on a final wicket stand of 43 to end on 180- all out; a lead of 30 runs.
Best Batsmen: A Jarvis 46; JJ Lyons 37
Best Bowling: H Trumble 4-55; RW McLeod 3-47; J Carlton 2-14
--
E Jones tried his best, but bowling out GHS Trott (8) and JE Barrett (4) wouldn't be nearly enough to stop Victoria getting their 31 runs to win by eight wickets.
Best Batting: J Worrall 10*; PM Lewis 8*
Best Bowling: E Jones 2-17
