278 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. JULY 15, 1886 TH E F IF TH AU S T R A L IA N TEAM IN ENG LAND . SEVENTEENTH MATCH.—v. NOTTS. After a capital display of all-round cricket, the second match between the present Aus­ tralian team and Notts ended at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, on Saturday in a draw, certainly in favour of the former. Barnes had not re­ covered sufficiently from his recent accident to be able to help Notts, and Wright declining to I>lay on the usual terms, his place was filled by Lockwood, a fast bowler, connected with the Forest Wanderers Club. Winning the toss, the county eleven were able to claim a lead of 22 runs on the first innings, aresult due chiefly to the excellent batting of Shrewsbury and Mr. Daft, and the effective bowling of Alfred Shaw and the colt Lockwood. Shaw’s figures in particular were remarkable—32 overs and a ball (21 maidens), for 1(J runs and four wickets. Palmer batted steadily and well, and his 59 was a really sound display. Scott and he while they were together added82 runs. When Notts went in asecond time Garrett andEvans bowled with great success, and no one but Scotton and Shrewsbury got over t.venty- Scotton, who is in great form this season batted with even more than his wonted patience, and his innings of 45 was invaluable to his side. He was altogether three hours and thirty-five minutes at the wickets. At the finish the Australians were left with 180 to win, and only two hours and fifty minutes left. Scott and Jones opened the innings with great care, and 64 had been got by excellent cricket when the latter was caught. Scott, who was in an hour and fifty minutes for his 35, was well caught and bowled, and after Palmer had been bowled, Bonnor was splendidly caught— a running catch in the long-field by Shacklock. GifTen and Trumble then became partners, and were in at the finish, the Australians wanting 58 runs to win with six wickets still to fall. Attewell’s bowling at the finish was worthy of a special record. He got all the four wickets down at a cost of only 18 runs. Jarvis and Mcllwraith stood out of the Australian team. N o tts .

YORKSHIRE. The Australian team, with Bonnor and Blackham out, gained a very creditable victory in this match concluded at Sheffield yesterday, winning with six wickets to spare. The game was watched with great interest throughout, and there was a large attendance on each day, particularly on Monday, when over 10,000 paid for admission. The Australians going in first made a very bad start, and six of the best batsmenwere out for 81. Palmer and Trumble, however, worked a complete change in the game, and before these two were parted the score had been increased to 179. Of the 98 runs added Trumble, the first to go, had con­ tributed 45 by good sound cricket. Spofforth, the last batsman, too, hit freely, helping Palmer to add 61, before the latter injudiciously ran himself out. Palmer’s 94 was an admir­ able display—adding materially to his repu­ tation as a batsman. He was in two hours and a-half and there was not a semblance of a chance during his long innings. Yorkshire went in on Monday night for lialf-an-hour, and during that time Bales and Hall scored 42 without the loss of a wicket, the former hitting in his best style for 30. On resuming on Tuesday Bates continue d to score fast, but after his dismissal no one except Utyett offered any serious resistance to the bowling of Garrett and Palmer, and the innings closed for 118, the last seven wickets only adding 38. The two boY1:rs named divided the ten wickets, Garrett getting six for forty-six, Palmer four for thirty-three runs. Following on in a minority of 117 runs, the Yorkshire- men showed to much better advantage. Bates, who has been considerably out of luck this season, again hit in brilliant stylo, and everyone will be pleased to see him in his true form. Ulyett . Hall, Preston, and Lee, too, played well, and indeed the batting generally was good, all the first eight men on the side getting double figures. Rain fell during Tuesday night, and on resuming yesterday Yorkshire’s second innings quickly closed, the last three wickets only adding 18. The Australians requiring 133 to win, made a bad start, Peate bow.ing Jones with the score at two only. Wl i eGiifen and Scott were in rain stopped play for twenty minutes, but the two batsmen were not separated till the score had been raised to 56, when Giffen was out 1b w. Jarvis and Palmer were dismissed in turn, but Scott continued to play in his best style, and he was not out 67 when the winning hit was made. Scott scored twenty-two runs from one over of Wade’s, a six, a four, both to square-leg, and two sixes, drives. The sixes were hits out of the field of play. A u str a lia n s . First Innings.
