Cricket 1886

JULY 15,1886 CBICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 279 DERBYSHIRE v. ESSEX. After having all the worst of the first stages Derbyshire gained a creditable victory in this match, concluded at Derbyshire yesterday, winning with 46 runs to spare. Essex was in full strength, but not Derbyshire, who were weakened in particular by the loss of Mr. G. G. Walker’s bowling. Essex were in till nearly the close of the first day, though the game had twice to be stopped on account of rain. Mr. C. D. Buxton, of the Cambridge Eleven, was the chief contributor to their total of 218, with a score of sixty. His innings was a lucky one as he was missed from the first ball ho received, and twice afterwards at short slip. Derbyshire, who on the first night los three wickets for two runs, thanks to Cropper and W. Chatterton were able to get 118, or just 100 behind, the two professionals contributing 84 of 108 from the bat. Following on, the same batsmen were again the chief run-getters for Derbyshire, and both showed good cricket, Cropper in particular batting well for his 52. When play ceased on Tuesday the home team were only 52 on with three wickets to fall, and the game seemed all in favour of Essex. The last batsmen of Derbyshire, though, yesterday gave trouble to the Essex bowlers, and 60were added by Mr. Docker, J. Chatterton, Stubbings and Disney before the innings closed. Essex had 113 to win, but Cropper and Davidson bowled with such success that Mr. Francis, who scored more than one-half of the total from the bat, alone got double figures, and the side were all out for the small total of 66.

GENTLEMEN v. PLAYERS. As in the same match of 1885, the Players were able to claim a victory over the Gentle­ men in their annual encounter at Lord’s, winning yesterday with five wickets to spare. There was a material difference, though, between the conditions of tho two games. Last summer the Elevens were representative, but the same could not be said of either this year. The fixture between the Australians and Yorkshire prevented any of the Yorkshiremen helping the professionals, while on the other hand, the Gentlemen were decidedly weak with Messrs. A. G. Steel, W. W. Read, C. W. Rock, and W. E. Roller all absent. The rain, too, on the first day, which limited the play to two hours, reduced the interest in the game considerably, and to judge by the attendance the match did not attract the same interest as usual, a result due no doubt in a great measure to a superabundance of first-class cricket this year. The Gentlemen, who went in first, found the wicket very difficult after the heavy rain of Monday morning, and as no play was possible after luncheon the game on the first day was limited to less than two hours. During this time the Players secured five good wickets for 78, of which Mr. W. H. Patterson contributed 33 by excellent cricket. On resuming, too, on Tuesday morning, the ground was all in favour of the bowlers, and Barlow and Lohmann were so successful that the innings closed for an addition of only 20runs. The Players, in their turn, did not make a brilliant commencement, and seven of their best batsmen were out for 120. Barnes, who had not appeared on the cricket-field since the match between Kent and Notts at Maidstone',' in particular showed to great advantage, and his score of 44 was a fine display of batting on a difficult ground. Later on, too, Abel and Flowers scored well off the weak bowlingof the Gentlemen, and the former, whose first appearan ie it was for the Players, showed capital crickyt. In a minority of 103 runs, the Geniio”ftch began their second innings at six o’clock on Tuesday, and during the hour that remained for play lost three good wickets, those of Messrs. Grace, Patterson, and Walker, for 54. Mr. Tylecote played good cricket yesterday, and Mr. Page also, as is his wont, batted with confidence. Otherwise there was little worthy of special note in the latter part of the innings, and when the tenth wicket fell at 162, the Players were left with COto win. A bad start they made, too, losing Shrewsbury, Scotton and Barlow all for 27. Barnes, how­ ever, as before, came to the rescue of his side, and playing again the very best cricket, chiefly through his aid the Players were able to claim their second successive win at Lord’s.
