Cricket 1883

AUGUST 30, I883. CRICKET ; A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 3 5 3 SURREY v. LANCASHIRE. The Surrey Eleven gained another very credit­ able victory at the Oval on Saturday afternoon over Lancashire. The first day’s play was re­ markable for the success of the fast bowler on each side, and it was certainly a surprise to find two such elevens out for totals of 75 and 82. Mainly through the brilliant play of Mr. Taylor and Barlow, who put on 123 runs for the first wicket without a mistake, Lancashire scored 210 in their second innings, Barlow being the last batsman out. When Mr. Key joined Mr. Roller on Friday afternoon Surrey’s chance of a victoryseemed of the smallest. There werethen 112 runs wanted to win, with only three wickets to fall. The two batsmen, however, played such fine cricket that by the end of the day one half of the number requiredhad been secured, and on Saturday morning they quickly got the balance, winning a grand victory for their side by three wickets. Two much praise cannot be given to the two amateurs for their brilliant play at such a critical time. Mr. Boiler’s success was the more creditable as his wrist had been badly hurt while batting on the first day, and he had to bat under a great disadvantage. Mr. Key played with confidence andhit freely, and every­ one will congratulate him oh avery fine perform­ ance. On the first day there was another un­ pleasant demonstration by the spectators with regard to Crossland’s delivery. The attitude of the crowd on the conclusion of Surrey’s first innings at one time seemed likely to bring the game to a premature conclusion, and there was a doubt about Lancashire going in again. Such demonstrations are much to be regretted, and it is to be hoped that we have seen the last of them. L an cash ire . First Innings. Mr. A. N.

Mainly through the fine stand made by Messrs. Page and Vizard at the close of their innings, Gloucestershire were able to avert a follow-on at Cheltenham on Saturday, and this in all probability saved them from defeat. The two batsmen named became associated when eight wickets were down for 82, and 115 runs were still wanted to save the follow. By splendid cricket they put on runs before Mr. Page was at last out 1-b-w. TheCheltenham captain of 1 ast year was missed at cover-point when he had got 48, but otherwise there was no mistake in his play. Mr. Vizard, who was captain of the Clifton College eleven in 1881, carried out his bat for 79, a most praiseworthy display of defensive cricket. As before stated the two young amateurs practically saved tho match for Gloucestershire. When Notts wen, in a second time, some vigorous hitting was shown by Selby, Gunn, and Flowers. The for­ mer had just completed his hundred bybrilliant hitting when he was bowled, and his runs were got without a mistake. The game was drawn, Notts being 392 runs on with fourwickets to fall. At the close of the match, Mr. Page was pre­ sented with a travelling timepiece, the gift of old Cheltonians inappreciation of his finebatting during the week. N o ttin g h a m sh ir e .
