The Australians suffered their.second reverse within a week on Tuesday last, the Notting­ hamshire eleven defeating them on the Trent Bridge Ground with ten wiokets to spare. Except for Shrewsbury’s absence Notts had its full strength, but on the other hand the Australians were severely handicapped by the loss of McDonnell and Jones, the two best batsmen in the team. The latter, who had not been feeling well for several days, did start, but had soon to leave the field, and Lyons took his place. Sherwin, winning the toss, took the innings. For a time, however, the bowlers had the best of the play and the Australians did well at the outset, Scotton, Gunn and Barnes all being easily got rid of. With the total at 42 for three wickets, Messrs. Daft and Dixon became partners, and the stand of the amateurs was the feature of the innings. Eighty-one runs were added before Lyon3, who had not bowled before in England, got Mr. Dixon out lbw. The outgoer had been in over two hours and a half, and his innings of 83 was free from an actual chance. Mr. Daft played very steady cricket, and this, with some free hitting by Flowers and a well got score by Attewell, enabled Notts to reach a respectable score of 216. |The Australians made a bad start like their ,opponents, and Sherwin caught both Bonnor and Bannerman at the wicket before play ceased on Monday night. On resuming on- Tuesday morning Attewell and BArnes bowled with great success, and the eight remaining wickets fell in less than, an hour for an addition of 39 runs. Following on in a minority of 139, thanks to some free cricket by Jarvis, who scored 35 out of 39 while he was in, the Australians made a better show, and when the third wicket fell the total was 66. A useful stand by Turner and Blackham added 62 runs to the total; and Worrall subsequently put life into the game by vigorous hitting. Attewell and Barnes, however, again proved too much for the rest, and Notts had in the end an easy victory, Messrs. Dixon and Daft getting the 38 runs wanted by good cricket without the loss of a wicket. Attewell, who had not played sinoe the match between Notts and Sussex on May 14, bowled with great success. He took ten wickets for an average of just over 8 runs. Barnes, too, was very effective, theugh his eight wickets were much., more expensive. The figures of Turner and Ferris will not compare with theirs of previous matches. Turner’s three wickets cost 105, Ferris’ two, 61 runs. A ustralians . First Innings. Second Innings. A. C.

After having considerably the worst of the first day’s play, the Lancashire eleven gained a very creditable victory over Middlesex at Lord’s on Tuesday last. Lancashire, winning the toss, went in first, but although strong in batting made only a moderate show, Briggs, Sugg, and Mr. Crosfield alone getting double figures. This small score was due to the good bowling of: Burton and Dunkley, the latter of whom made his first appear­ ance this season-;- The Middlesex batting was a decided improvement on that of Lanca­ shire. Messrs. Scott, Buckland and Webbe all played good cricket, but the best form was shown by Mr. Hadow, who was seen to great advantage, carrying out his tat for an exceed­ ingly well got score of 47. When Lancashire went in a second time Mr. Crosfiold and Barlow scored fast, and Mr. Eccles, who followed the former, lent such useful assistance that when play ceassd for the {lay Lancashire were 44 on with ons wicket down; On Tuesday morning Mr. Eccles and Barlow added 80 more runs before the latter was caught, the pair, while together, having increased the total by 130 runs. Barlow was in just over three hours for his 84, which was free from a fault. Mr. Eccles was out seventh at 248, and though let off twice early in his innings, and again just at the close, hia 97 was a good exhibition of free cricket. Middlesex went in with 223 to win, and with three of their best wickets down for 27 their chances did not appear to be very promising. Some capital cricket by Messrs. Walker and Hadow, and subsequently by Messrs. Robertson and Paravicini, how­ ever, brought them within measurable distance of success, and after an interesting finish they were only beaten by 24 runs. Dunkley’s six wickets in the first innings of Lancashire were got a cost of 42 runs. L a n c a s h ir e . Second Innings. c Buckland, b Robertson ... 23 First Innings. Mr. S. M.
