Cricket 1888

JULY 19, 1888. CRICKET s A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAMEo 277 batsmen, playing with great freedom, worked la great change, and when Watson was bowled for an excellent 26 the total was 74, or 48 on. Jackson, who followed, gave Hoare, too, very valuable assistance, and at the end of the day the score was 167 for three wickets, Hoare not out 80, Jackson, not out 50. Towards the last the scoring was very fast, and the last 67 runs were put on in forty-five minutes. On resuming the following morning, 21 were added before Jackson, who had batted in free style for his 59, was bowled. Hoare stayed until the score was 222 , when he also was bowled. He had been in for three hours and a quarter, and with the exception of two chances just before the close on Friday, his innings was an admirable one in every way, the result of taking and free oricket. Gilroy again got double figures, but the rest of £he batting presented no special features, Hoare and Jackson having contributed 167 of 223 from the bat. Studd again bowled with great effect, taking eight of the ten wickets. The light was bad when Eton went in a second time, wanting 209 to win. Any hopes of an Eton victory were soon dispelled, for the batting was of the most disappointing character, and the Harrow bowlers, Jackson and Hoare, had things so much their own way that the total was only 17 at the fall of the eighth wicket. Goad and Hodgson, by good hitting, improved matters slightly, but the show altogether was very poor, and the close of the innings for 52 left Harrow with an easy victory by 156 runs. Jackson and Hoare between them took nine of the ten wickets, and the former’s figures were the best of the match, showing eleven wickets for 68 , an average of just over six runs.

Yet to all intents and purposes the return match between the Gentlemen and Players was completed on Fri­ day, half-an-hour on Saturday being sufficient to dismiss the last two wickets in the second innings of the Gentlemen. Mr. A. G. Steel’s absence weakened the amateurs, of course, but, on the whole, the sides were, we think, better than those earlier in the week at Lord’s. The Players in particular were a very formid­ able combination, and, indeed, it would be difficult to recall an instance of late years of such an exceptionally brilliant fielding eleven. Continuous rain during the morning prevented any play on Thursday, and, of course, when a commencement was made on the following day, although the weather was bright and warm the ground was soft and not in the best condition for run-getting. Ulyett winning the toss decided to take the innings, and the result proved that his policy was not unwise. In the earlierpart, at least, the ground did not appear to be very difficult, and though there was no high score, Briggs, Sugg, Gunn, Abel, and Wood all played good cricket. Of the bowlers who were tried for the Gentlemen, Mr. Woods was the most successful. We have seen him bowl better, but still his figures against such a side were very good. When the Gentlemen went in Mr. Grace, after being missed at long slip, was easily caught at point, and with the exception of that of Mr. Read, the batting was of the most disappointing kind. Peel and Barnes were, of course, not easy on the slow wicket, but there was certainly not sufficient to account for such a complete break down, and the play was quite unworthy of the occa­ sion. Following on 100 runs to the bad the batting of the Gentlemen was evenworse than before. This time Peel, who had taken six Wickets for thirty-four runs, was not tried, and Briggs and Lohmann shared the bowling. Mr. Read, though he only got nine, was again the highest scorer, and at seven o’clock eight batsmen were out with the total only thirty- four. Half-an-hour sufficed to finish the match on Saturday. Messrs. Bowden and Smith, the two last batsmen, made the longest stand of the innings, and the former was the most successful run-getter, making eighteen of twenty-seven added for the tenth wicket. Briggs and Lohmann bowled throughout, the former getting five wickets for 28, the latter four for 34. The Players won by an innings and 39 runs. P l a y e r s .
