Cricket 1888

132 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. MAY 17, 1888. CRICKET AT CAMBRIDGE. U N IV E R S IT Y v. M r . C. I. THORNTON’S ELEVEN . Mr. C. I. Thornton, following an annual custom, took down a mixed team to Cambridge on Thursday last to give the University Eleven a preliminary trial. Mr. Buxton, the Captain, was supported by no less than six old choices, Messrs. Mordaunt, Woods (the fast bowler of the Brighton College Eleven of 1887), McGregor (the Uppingham wicket-keeper of last year), and Trouncer (a left-handed batsman who had shown to great advantage in the Seniors’ match in the previous week), filling the four remain­ ing places. The University, who went in first, made only a poor show against the bowling of the two left-handers, Alec Hearne and Emmett. The wicket was hardly up to the standard of those usually provided at Cambridge, and only three of the Eleven got double figures, Mr. Trouncer proving the highest scorer with 24 of the small total of 80. Emmett’sbowling was remarkably successful. He took half the wickets at an average cost of three runs. Messrs. Thornton and Studd put on 51 for the first wicket of the other side, but none of the later batsmen, with the exception of Mr. Webbe, who played in his very best style, made a lengthy stay, and the nine remaining wickets only added 104. Mr. Woods proved the most effective of the feur bowlers tried, taking five wickets in 57 overs for 78 runs. Mr. Hale also came off well at the close, his three wickets costing twelve runs. In a minority of 75 the University only made a slightly better show, and, as in the first innings, but three batsmen reached double figures. The best feature of the cricket was the play of Mr. Martineau. He was in nearly two hours, and his score of 30 was the outcome of careful and judicious batting W ith only 22 to win Mr. Thornton sent in Messrs. Buxton and H. F. de Paravicini, and in a quarter-of-an-hour the two amateurs knoeked off the runs, leaving the University on Friday afternoon with a defeat by ten wickets. U n iv e r s it y . First Innings.

MARYLEBONE CLUB AND GROUND v. SUSSEX. The Marylebone Club put a strongish eleven into the field at Lord’s on Thursday last to oppose Sussex. The County, on the other hand, with Messrs. Smith, Newham, Brann, McCormick and Thomas away, had only a moderate team, and the easy victory they were able to claim was, therefore, the more creditable. The chief feature of the first day, which ended without any appreciable ad­ vantage to either side, was the excellent all­ round cricket of Mr. W . G. Grace. Going in first for M.C.C., he made 73 of the first 103 runs in an hour and ten minutes, and without a chance of any sort. Among his hits were one to square leg over the grand stand for six, though it must be stated that the wicket was pitched higher up the ground than usual. When Sussex went in, too, he was as success­ ful with the Ball, taking five of the ten wickets at a cost of only thirty-eight runs. On the second day the game underwent agreat change, and the Sussex Eleven, having the best of the game at all points, had things their own way. Bean, Jesse Hide and Humphreys all played well, and, indeed, this trio were responsible for 181 out of 256 from the bat. Bean in particular was seen to ad­ vantage. He was let off once, but his hitting all round was very clean, and his ninety, which included nine fours and nine threes, was altogether a highly meritorious display of batting. Wanting 234 to win, M.C.C. made a very bad start, and with Mr. Grace, Mr. Key, Hearne and Davidson all out for 49, their chances were of the smallest. The result, in fact, was never in any doubt, and the ter­ mination of the innings for 108 left Sussex the winners by 125 runs. Tate bowled with con­ siderable success. He took four of the last six wickets at a cost of only twenty-one runs. Davidson, the Derbyshire professional, made his first appearance for the Marylebone Club in this match. S u s s e x .
