(For a batsman to be on his ground he must have part of one of his feet, or else his bat, grounded within the popping crease. On the crease is out.) H. 0 .—1. Is a batsman out, if being out of his ground the ball goes into the wicket, rebounding from the wicket-keeper’s legs, or other part of his person than his hands ? Or to put it in another form, must a wicket-keeper handle the ball in order to stump a batsman ? 2. Would a batsman be out if a ball was kicked into the wicket by the wicket-keeper or a fielder while the batsman was out of his ground? 3. Can the wicket-keeper catch a ball with his gloves on in front of the wicket? (I. The batsman is out.) (2. Yes.) (3. Yes.) A. M artin (Loughton Amateurs).—In a recent match the wicket-keeper returned a ball in usual way to bowler; the latter missed it, and the batsman politely picked it up and handed it to him. Bowler appealed, and umpire gave batsman, under Rule 23, out. Was the batsman justified in declining to go out ? (The ball was dead and the umpire was wrong in his decision, but no cricketer is justified in declining to go out when given out,‘however wrongly.) J.

Mr. W. Barker, of the Richmond Club, a fast left- hand round-arm bowler, made his debut for Surrey, but.with little success. Jones took eight of twelve Middlesex wickets for 90 runs, and Mr. C. T. Studd had nine Surrey batsmen at a cost of 111 runs. Score and analyses:— S urrey . First Innings. Second Innings. Mr. J. Shuter, b Burton .. .. 3 c Tuke, b Burton .. 33 Mr. S. W.

Middlesex had more than compensation for its defeat by Surrey at the Oval in the easy victory it gained at Lord’s on Friday last. Neither Mr. Lucas nor Mr. Roller nor Barratt were able to play for Surrey, and the bowling of the county was thereby greatly weakened. For the first time for seven matches Mr. Shuter won the toss, but with a little bad luck Surrey were dismissed for 117—a poor performance on such a, good wicket. Messrs. I. D. Walker and A. J. Wetbe, who usually make runs against Surrey, put on 130 for the first wicket, but after this Jones and Mr. Horner bowled well, and the innings only reached 235, Mainly through a finely played 70 by Mr. W .

The fine batting of Grimshaw and the effective bowling of Ulyett were the chief features in the play of the Yorkshiremen in their fifth match with the Australian team, begun at Middlesborough on Thursday. On the other side, M‘Donnell’s hitting was the striking incident, though Garrett’s bowling had quite as much to do with the long lead the Australians had on the first innings. M‘Donnell, it may be remembered, was seriously ill on the voyage to England, but he seems now to have thoroughly recovered, and his hitting was as dash­ ing as ever. There were eleven four3 in his first score of 8*2, and he scored three of these from suc­ cessive balls of Bates. In Yorkshire’s first innings Garrett took seven wickets for 49 runs. Ulyett’s fast bowling was very effective in the Australians’ first innings. He got five wickets, all bowled, for 42 runs. Yorkshire were beaten by seven wickets.
