Cricket 1885

APRIL 23, 1885. CRICKET; A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 77 The game did not commence till two o’clock, and at about half-past four an adjournment was made to the Pavilion, where in the presence of a large number of the Ashfield Ground Company, the healths of the English team was proposed. Lilly- white responded. The weather was lovely, but not more than 1,000 persons visited the ground. On Friday, March 6 , in perfect weather for cricket, the game was continued. Scotton and Shrewsbury, the not-outs of the previous night, did not remain together long, as after Shrewsbury had made a single, he was clean bowled. Ulyett, who came next, hit hard, but the fielding was so smart, that only singles resulted, and after adding 5, he was bowled. Banes and Scotton could not get the bowling away, and, at length, the latter was clean bowled. Altogether, it took three- quarters of an hour to make 15 runs—all singles—three being Scotton’s share. On Bates going in a change to the slow scoring was expected. These hopes wer» soon realised, as he lifted a ball clean over the bounds for 5, though in attempting it again he was caught at cover-point. Four for thirty was not a good look out for the Britishers. The Juniors’ bowling waswonder­ fully good, and they fielded up like tigers. The next two batsmen, however, placed a very different aspect on the game before their partnership terminated. In quick suc­ cession, 40, 50, 60, and 70 were hoisted on the hoard, but at 78 Barnes pulled a ball into his wicket, and retired for a well-made 25. Read and Flowers completely took what little pluck was left in them out of the Juniors, and it was not until the score had reached 120 that a well-judged catch dismissed Flowers. He played in his very best form for 42. Attewell, after making 10, was bowled by a shooter. (Seven for 136 ) Peel helped Read to increase the score to 170, when he was bowled for 13, which included a spanking straight drive for 5. Hunter made no sign, being caught and bowled first ball. Lillywhite added 6 , including a 4 to leg, when he was bowled, the innings closing for 188. Read was not out 52, made in rattling good form. Among his hits were seven 4’s and a rare on-drive out of the ground for 6 . Ten of the Juniors tried their hands at howling, and it was noticed that all of them had got the knack of delivering well over the shoulder, several of them having plenty of break. The Eighteen entered on their second innings at twenty minutes to six, Bites and Flowers bowling. When ‘ ‘ Time ” was called, two wickets had fallen for 9 runs. The attend­ ance was again small, not more than 1,000 being present. On Saturday, Miroh 7, in beautiful weather, the game was continued at half­ past one, and right well the Juniors played Indeed they kept the English team in the field the whole of the afternoon, and at the call of “ Time ” had made 184 runs, for the loss of twe’ ve wickets only. Ulyett, Bates, Flowers, Attewell, Peel, and Read all bowled (Read for the first time in the Colonies). Singularly, each man took two wickets. The match was drawn. About 2,000 spectators were present.

WELLINGTON.^ The team left the same evening for Wel­ lington, adistance of 250miles by rail,over the famous Zig-Zag Railway, though going over in the night time the beauty of the scenery was lost. The men tamed out of the sleeping car soon after daylight, and arrived at Wel­ lington at eight o’clock for breakfast. Before this took place, however a formal reception was given to the Eleven by the cricketers at Wellington, and their heal hs drunk in champagne. The match was eventually drawn. W ellington .

B Oakley, who officiated in the unavoidable absence of Mr. W. S. Shirley. The Chairman spoke of the great progress which the Club had made during the last few years, pointing out that where there were forty members two years ago, there were now close upon two hundred. Reference was also made to the project which is on foot for establishing sub-com­ mittees at Oxford and Cambridge Universi­ ties, and the idea was very warmly supported by Mr, A. M. Latham on behalf of Oxford, and by Mr. T. Greatorex on behalf of Cambridge. Mr. W M. O. Wilson proposed “ The Visitors ” which was replied to by the Rev. Mr. Bruneson in an amusing speech. Mr. G. W. Henderson responded to the toast of “ The Officers” entrusted to Mr. A. Taylor, Several members and friends added to the success of the evening by songs, &c.
