ALEXANDER SPORTING NEWS · THE HUNDREDTH COMPLETED EVENT

One wicket in hand, a century for ASN

C&D game used: Minden Basic

Tasmania vs New South Wales · Hobart

Historical continuation: January 1, 1900

New South Wales wins by one wicket

ASN’s hundredth completed event ended with New South Wales reaching 296 for nine against Tasmania. A target of 296 left no room for another dismissal: BX Colreavy finished unbeaten on 15 and A McBeath on 11.

HA Evers led the chase with 72, RA Duff made 58 and AL Newell added 36. New South Wales had been dismissed for 305 in reply to Tasmania’s 421, a first-innings deficit of 116. Tasmania then made 179, setting the visitors 296 to win.

The replay began with Tasmania already 341 for five, preserving the historical January 1 opening and Gatehouse’s 52 not out. Everything after that position belongs to the ASN replay. This is one completed match; its innings and calendar continuation entries do not count as separate events.

Tasmania 421 & 179; New South Wales 305 & 296/9.

Derived from the owner-recorded official Minden Basic match. Historical carried scores retain their source. Bowling-family estimates and the timeless 1899 follow-on/declaration convention were acknowledged before official play; local historical adoption remains unconfirmed.

Reading the record

ASN total after this publication: 100 completed events — 53 historical replays and 47 fictional games. Eleven active sports and leagues remain in the network. The Universal date stays January 10, 1900.

Historical first-innings overs, full carried bowling figures, balls faced and the earlier extras split remain unavailable. The scorebook distinguishes new replay bowling from earlier known wickets. The internal timeless replay clock does not establish a historical finish date.
