SURREY. Urging on their victorious career, the Aus­ tralian team added a brilliant victory to their two previous successes at Kennington Oval on Tuesday, when they defeated Surrey by no less than an innings and 154 runs. On their form of last year, the Surrey eleven were expected to render a good account of them­ selves, and the match was regarded with no small interest by the English public as well as by the Australians, as it was considered to be the first real test of the tour. Unfortunately for Surrey, things did not go well for them in any way. Mr. W . E. Roller and Jones were both unable to play, and as Maurice Read and Lohmann only reachedLondon on the previous night from New Zealand, they were obviously not in the condition requisite for such an im ­ portant fixture. In the absence of Mr. Roller and Jones the eleven was completed by Hen­ derson and Brockwell, the latter of whom had shown promising all-round cricket for the SurreyClub against Blackheath on the previous Saturday. The selection committee of the Australian team deoided to leave out Jarvis and Edwards, who were both suffering from injured hands. Mr. Shuter was unfortunate enough to lose the toss, and at twelve o’clock on Monday th« Surrey eleven took the field, followed by the Australian captain and his old partner, Bannerman. The Surrey bowling was commenced by Lohmann and Bowley, but the wicket was too easy for them to do anything, and runs came at a good pace, the first half hour realising forty runs. Abel was then tried instead of Lohmann, and a little later another change was made, Bowley giving way to Henderson. Though Bowley re-appeared at the other end, both batsmen were quite at home, and the first ohance of any kind which fell to the Surrey men was one of running out McDonnell, when he had got 47, spoiled by a bad return. The same batsman soon after hit one very hard to Mr. Read at point, but just as a hundred seemed a certainty, he was bowled by a good ball from Lohmann. The first two batsmen had made 97 runs, and of these the captain had contributed 56. He played with great judgment as well as more steadiness than was his wont, and his display was an excellent one in every way. Though at luncheon time the score was 101 for one wicket (Bannerman not out 43), on the re­ sumption the game took a turn altogether in avour of Surrey, and with half the Australian wickets down for 146 they did not seem to have much the best of the deal. Turner’s appearance, however, worked a wonderful change, and the play from this point went all against the County. When the total was 158, Lohmann was obliged to leave the field owing to an injured toe, and Beaumont was also practically of little use in consequence of a severe blow to one of the fingers of his bowling hand. Under the circumstances the Surrey team were considerably handicapped, and the Australian tail took full advantage of the opportunity. Turner lost Trott at 90, but he still oontinued to score freely all round, and none of the bowling seemed to trouble him at all. He was nearly bowled by Bowley with two suc­ cessive balls, but, with the exception that he put one near to Abel at short slip, he made no mistake that we saw, and his hitting, particu­ larly his off strokes, was exceedingly clean and well-timed. He was only in two hours for his 103, and we can hardly believe that ;there has been any better perform­ ance on the occasion of a first appear­ ance at the Oval. For a short time he was a little shaky, but on the whole he laid on the wood in very fine style, and too much praise cannot be awarded to him for a most plucky and vigorous display of batting. Mr. Turner is one of the most deservedly popular cricketers in the Colonies, and everyone will congratulate him on the excellent all-round cricket he has shown in the early fixtures. After his dismissal, Ferris and Boyle both hit well, and the last wicket 'adding 47 runs, the innings closed just before the finish of Monday for the heavy total of 363. Surrey had a very uphill task before them when they began batting on Tuesday, and as it happened their show was singularly disap­ pointing. Turner and Ferris of course shared the Australian bowling, and in an hour and fifty-five minutes they had succeeded in dismissing the Surrey eleven for the small total of 89. Turner took six wickets for forty- five, Ferris four for forty-four runs, and on a good wicket against so strong a batting side the achievement was one of great merit. Following on with a heavy sum of 274 mus against them, the County made a bad start, Abel being bowled when he had only scored eight. Mr. Key again lent useful help, but the best batting of the innings was, oddly enough, shown by the two late arrivals, Maurice Read and Lohmann. The former, indeed, showed by far the best cricket on the Surrey side, and his partnership with Lohmann, who had a substitute to run for him, it may be stated, was the one redeeming feature of a poor display The two professionals brought on the only changes in the Australian bowling. Ferris was the first to give way to Trott, who gets a lotof leg break-on. Jones,though,finished up the innings with his fast bowling in sensational fashion, getting the last three wickets at the cost of only four runs. The Australians thus won by an innings and 174 runs. Their cricket all round was of a high standard, and their performance a most creditable one in every way, even admitting that their opponents had the worst of the luck. To get the Surrey eleven out twice for an aggregate of 209 runs, and on a batsman’s wicket, was of itself a good performance, and their show altogether will satisfy the public that they will take their own part against the best of our English teams, particularly when they get together. On the first day 6,000 persons paid for admission to the ground, and on the second 7,375, or 13,375 in the match. A u s t r a l ia n s . Mr. P. S. M’Donnell, b Lohmann ........ 56 Mr. A.
