296 CRICKET; A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. SEPT. 21, I8P2. does it go as 5 runs against bowler’s analysis ?— (1. No. 2. Four wides to be reckoned in bowler’s analysis. 3. Five no-balls to be reckoned in bowler’s analysis.) I. H. L ow es . —Is there any account published of the tour of Shaw’s team in Australia this last winter, containing scores and details of the matches played, and if so where I could get it, and the price ?—(No work of the kind that we know of has been published yet.) M. H opson (Abbotsbury, Dorset).— 1. Long-stop threw in a ball which passed the wicket-keeper, who was at slip; tha batsman struck it back toward the wicket-keeper. Was he out for so doing ? 2. Ball being thrown in by a fielder to the bowler, who caught it in his hat. Would that be fire runs to their opponents, when no run was being attempted?—(1. Out. 2. Five runs.) P. A. S. (Tunbridge Wells.)—The batsman hits the ball into the deep field; one run is run, and the batsmen are running the second when the ball is caught. Does the first run count ?• -(No ran is scored.) S t o m p s .— Last week I noticed an answer to a corres­ pondent as to the batsman knocking his wicket down whilst running, and have seen the same thing before in most all sporting papers. I have noticed in a great number of small matches (and in some large ones too) the great mistake of running straight at the wickets instead of at the sides. It was noticeable in the last Eton and Harrow contest. It is not a nice thing for the wicket-keeper or bowler to have a batsman charge at him at full speed just as he is about to stop a sharply-returned ball, and the evil of cutting up the wicket and assisting to make the bowling difficult is obvious. I think this is a matter which should have the attention of all cricketers small and great.— (It is a bad practice, but there is no law against it.) D. C. B.—In a one-day match A.’s side score 65 and 26, B.’s side 36 and 55 with one wicket to fall. A .’s side claim a victory on the first inuings as the game was not finished. B.’s side claim a tie, as a position they had already gained, claiming nothing on what was probable—as if A. had played only one innings, and B. had equalled or exceeded his score with one or more wickets to fall, this would be reckoned a tie or win for B. Please say which side is right, and what is the result.—(No match is decided by the first innings unless it is specially agreed between the parties that such shall be the case. If there was such an agreement A.’s side wins, the matoh being unfinished.) T. W. B rooks (Leigh). — If you will refer to our advertisement columns, you will see that a book such as you desire will be published here early in October. ^C@I^EgP0NDBNCE> We are not responsible for the opinions expressed by our cor­ respondents.

TO THE ED II03 OF “ OBICEEI.” S ir , —Would you, Mr. Editor, or any of your numerous readers kindly oblige with a list of works on cricket, when published, and at what price. I feel sure it would be of interest to your readers, and useful to collectors of such works. I have a good many myself, but would wish to add to my collec­ tion.—Respectfully yours, F. G. S p y b ey . H. F. BOYLE’S BIOGRAPHY. TO THE EDITOR OP “ CRICKET.” S ir , —In this gentleman’s biography which appears in your last issue, I notice a mistake in his bowling analyses at Eliand, which in justice to Mr. Boyle and for the information of those of your readers who are not so well posted on the subject as to ob­ serve the error, I venture to correct. On the occa­ sion referred to Boyle took seven wickets in seven successive balls, and the eighth ball delivered should have been another wicket, but the catch was not accepted. This was such a noteworthy perform­ ance that I feel sure you will be pleased to draw attention to it. I enclose my card, and beg to sub­ scribe myself Cardiff, September 18. V ic t o r ia n .
