Cricket 1886

170 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OP THE GAME. JUNE|3,1886. who have been generally having a very bad time of it so far this summer. It may interest them to know that even Lord’s, where cricket lias not been seen to the best advantage this year, has had worse experiences. A valued correspon­ dent calls my attention to a note on page 296 of Vol. X II. of “ Scores and Bio­ graphies,” which says that in 1843 not a ball was bowled at Lord’s during one part of the season for about six weeks in practice. A C h e lte n h a m correspondent .has been good enough to send me the following table, giving the averages of the first eight batsmen who have played six completed innings in first class fixtures up to Saturday last.

The Twelve had an easy victory inthis match played on Thursday last and two following days, winning with eleven wickets to spare. Mr. F. Thomas, the Eton captain of 1885, was chief scorer for the Twelve. His 66was a good display of cricket, though not without faults. Mr. Rock in the two innings of the Sixteen took fourteen wickets at a cost of 67. runs. In the second innings Mr. Moline was the most successful. His nine wickets were £ot. pit an expense of 62 runs.

M.C.C. AND G. Though the Marylebone Club sent down a weak team to Cambridge on Monday, the University were only able to win yesterday w ith four wickets to spare after a very even game. The Marylebone Eleven, who went in first, had an advantage of thirteen runs on the first hands, a result due in some measure to the mistakes of their opponents in the field. The chief feature of tlie second innings of M.C.C. wa3 the batting of the veterans Mr. C. Booth and Emmett. These two were responsi­ ble for 81 of a total of 127 from the bat. The University, when they went in a second time, wanted 147 to win, and through the good batting of Messrs, Turner, Bainbridge (who added 68 runs while together), and Kemp,, who showed capital cricket each time, these were got for the loss of six batsmen. Mr. R ock bowled with great success for the University. He took altogether eleven wickets for 103 runs. Emm ett’s ten wickets for M.C.C. cost 110 runs. M.C.C. and G. First Innings. Second Innings.

MIDDLESEX v. KENT. Though Lord’s was suffering from the severe effects of-the heavy rainfall of late some interesting cricket was shown in this niatcti, poncluded yesterday. The ground was’ aswas only to be expected, in favour of the bowler’s, and the highest-of the four innings was 158. -On the first day twenty-jtwo wickets fell for an aggregate of 223 runs, and the highest score was the 30 of G. G. Hearne, who wasvat the wickets an hour and a half for his rUns. The heavy thunderstorm of Tuesday m orning prevented a resumption of the game till after luncheon, and for a time the wicket was not so m uch against the batsmen. 'The chief fea­ ture of the second innings of M iddlesex was the capital cricket of Messrs. Leslie and Scott, on the fall of the third w icket. Mr. Leslie made 35 out of 58 got while he was in, and his play was, throughout, up to his best form . Mr. Scott was, as in the first innings, the highest scorer on the side, and his batting was worthy of the highest praise. H e was at the wickets altogether three hours for his 47, an invaluable innings under the circumstances. Kent went in a second time on Tuesday night with 180 to win, and so well did Mr. H ine-H aycock and Frank Hearne bat, that 47 had been made without the loss of a wicket when play ceased. Yesterday, though, the wicket was difficult and the game went in favour of Middlesex. Mr. Ton^e batted with great judgm ent, but he received no help from the later batsmen, and the innings closed for 136, leaving Middlesex victorious by 43 runs. W ootton and W est bowled with great success for their respec­ tive sides. The form er’s figures in the second innings of Middlesex were veryjgood, showing 6 wickets for 31 runs. W est’s bowling, singularly enough, was attended with identical success in the first venture of Kent. His six wickets also cost 31 runs. M iddlesex . First Innings. Second Innings. Mr. J.G.
