Cricket 1886

878 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. AUG. 26,1886. THE CHELTENHAM WEEK . GLOUCESTERSHIRE v. YORKSHIRE. The Cheltenham week came to a premature close with tt*3 completion of the second fixture on Friday afternoon. The Yorkshiremen, who up to the previous Saturday had only won one match this season, followed up their victory against Middlesex with another success, thus securing two wins within five days. Both sides were well represented, and with the exception that Crossland took wicket for Yorkshire in the place of Mr. G. A. B. Leatham, the elevens were the same as had done duty for their respective Counties earlier in the week. Mr. Hawke won the toss for Yorkshire, and though the wicket was not yet easy after the wet the total reached the respectable sum of 167 before the tenth wicket fell. The chief feature of the innings was the partnership of Mr. Hawke and Preston, who contributed 93 to the aggregate, both hitting in excellent style. Gloucestershire made a very bad start when their turn came to bat, and Wade and Emmett bowled with such success that £ x of the best batsmen were out for only seventeen runs. Some lively cricket by Messrs. Page and Radcliffe improved the soore materially, and 34 runs were added while they were to­ gether. When play was resumed on Friday 20 werestall wanted to save the follow on,andas the two wickets still left only added 17, Glou­ cestershire had in consequence to go in again in a minority of 82. This time, thanks to the brothers Grace and Mr. Radcliffe, the commencement was much more promising, and while Mr. W. G. Grace and Brain were partners the total was 96. After this, though, Wade, who has proved a most valuable acquisition to the Yorkshire eleven, again bowled with remarkable effect, and the last six wickets only added 35 runs. Of these six Wade took five in his last nine overs and two balls, at a cost of but seven runs—a remarkable performance. Yorkshire had 50 to get to win, and 38 of them had been got by Hall and Bates before the former was finely caught at mid-off. After the same fieldsman had also dismissed Ulyett in brilliant style from a hard cut Mr. Hawke came in, and Preston and hebrought the score to a tie. Then the game underwent a remarkable change, and Bates, Mr. Hawke and Preston were all dismissed before the winning run was got, Peel with a lucky stroke winning the match for Yorkshire with six wickets to spare. The bowlers were seen to great advantage through­ out, and in all only 435 were totalled for 35 wickets, an average of under 12J runs. Des­ pite the early finish of the second match, the week was a great success, and the attendance on the second day was the largest ever recorded at Cheltenham. It is hardly necessary to add that under the watchful care of Mr. E. W. Lawrence the arrangements were excellent. Y orkshire . First Innings. Sepond Innings. Hall, b W. G.
