South Australia 10/12 vs New South Wales 14/14
Adelaide Oval
17th, 19th-21st December 1904
Lineups:
South Australia- FT Hack, DRA Gehrs, C Hill, J Darling, CB Jennings, N Claxton, PM Newland, JC Reedman, RF Cowen, JPF Travers, PH Coombe
New South Wales- JRM Mackay, RA Duff, MA Noble, CW Gregory, SE Gregory, AJY Hopkins, EF Waddy, JJ Kelly, A Cotter, WP Howell, FB Johnson
First Innings
South Australia suffer more batting woes as five walk straight back to the pavilion with ducks, and two more score a single run. A fourth wicket partnership of 172 runs stops this from becoming a total embarrassment, but they will need the bowlers to step up if they are to get anything out of this one.
SA 235
DRA Gehrs 124; CB Jennings 82
AJY Hopkins 5-50
New South Wales didn't miss a beat in the off-season as they looked as good as ever with bat in hand. Things slipped a little halfway through the wickets, but they were already in full control of the match after a second wicket partnership of 283.
SA 235
NSW 580
RA Duff 221; MA Noble 156; SE Gregory 50
PH Coombe 3-118
Second Innings
Starting by losing your first four wickets for only five runs is not the best way to fight a losing battle. They would again somehow pass two-hundred as the bottom half of the lineup improves drastically from the first inning.
SA 235 + 203
NSW 580
JPF Travers 44
FB Johnson 4-66; MA Noble 3-37
New South Wales wins by an innings and one-hundred-forty-two runs
