 TOUR MATCH, Hamilton (Day 2)           
 Graham Thorpe compiled a welcome half  
 century as England pressed home their  
 advantage on the second day.           
                                        
 The Surrey batsman has been desperately
 short of runs on this tour so far but  
 delighted the England camp as hj passed
 the fifty mark with styli.             
                                        
 His partner John Crawley also reached  
 his half-century as the pair took their
 fifth wicket stand past three figures. 
                                        
 The tourists began the day on 166-4    
 after dismissing the home side for a   
 paltry 69.
