Cricket 1888

870 CBICKET; A WEEKLY EE COED OE THE GAME. AUG . 80, 1888 Brighton, but he has generally done well, and his average for the year is a very creditable one of 24.8 In minor matches Mr. Pullen has always been a fast run-getter, and among his best performances may be noticed his 187 for South Wales v. Kensington Park in 1884, and this year 235 (not out) for Walham Green against Kingstown Town, and 180 for Thorn- bury v. Bath Association, in which latter match with Mr. E. M. Grace he put on 311 for the first wicket. Playing in a very neat style, Mr. Pullen is a batsman whom it is always interesting to watch. Standing well up, and with plenty of strength in addition to good defence, he has also no small powers of hitting, scoring indeed very fast when set. He has a capital stroke just in front of point, but his play is not want­ ing in variety, and he makes every use of a chance when the ball wants punishing. He is an excellent field, and on occasions has kept wicket for Gloucestershire with moderate success. Mr. Pullen, we may add, represented the Gentlemen against the Players in the Oval match of 1885, scoring 27 in the first, and 22 in the second innings. NORTHBROOK v.

T H E S I X T H A U S T R A L I A N T E A M THIRTY-SECOND MATCH — v. AN ENGLAND ELEVEN. The original intention of the Directors of the Crystal Palace in making a fixture with the Australians for the latter half of last week was to have opposed to them an eleven representing the South of England. As Sussex was the only shire, however, disen­ gaged, it was found impossible to get a team from the South alone, and Derbyshire being alone of the rest free, the eleven was ulti­ mately made up from the two counties, with the addition of J. Phillips, the Australian engaged at Lord’s. Rain prevented a com­ mencement on Thursday until two o’clock, and when play did begin Turner bowled to such purpose that the Australian team were able to dismiss their opponents for a small total of 108. As it happened, though, this proved too much for the Colonials. Hulme, the left- handed Derbyshire bowler, who has been singularly successful during the last few weeks, began by bowling McDonnell for five, and it was entirely to his exceptionally fine bowling that the small innings of the Australians, who were all out for 47, was due, the last five wickets falling on Friday morning for twenty runs. Hulme took seven of the ten wickets at a cost of only fourteen runs, a remarkable performance. Going in a second time with an advantage of Gl, the English team, with the one exception of Mr. Sutthery, showed up badly. Mr. Sutthery, who went in first, was out seventh wicket at 84, of which he had made 54 by cricket of the best kind. His was the one double figure on the side, and indeed the ten other batsmen only made 37 between them, Turner and Ferris bowling unchanged. Of the 160 wanted to win, the Australians, having to bat in a very bad light, had made 51 for the loss of two wickets, when rain stopped play at a quarter past five o’clock. The wicket on Saturday morning helped the bowlers, and Phillips proved so successful that the eight remaining wickets were secured for an addition of 30, leaving the Englishmen the winners by 78 runs.

OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE PAST AND PRESENT. Heavy rain on Tuesday prevented the possi­ bility of the completion of this match, begun on the ground of the United Service Club at Portsmouth on Monday, and the result was a draw. Had the Universities been able to put the best team at their disposal into the field the side would have been a strong one, but as it was, the elevSn was only moderate, and the bowling in particular was very weak. As the Australian Captain lost the toss, how­ ever, the Englishmen were fortunate enough to get the first innings, and, making good use of their opportunity, reached a very respecta­ ble sum of 243 before the tenth wicket fell. The foundation of this total was laid by Lord Harris and Mr. Patterson, the first two bats­ men, who took the score to 96 before the for­ mer was caught at slip for a thoroughly well played fifty-two. Mr. Patterson proved more difficult to dislodge, and it was not till the record was 195 that he was caught by Ferris, off his own bowling. He had been batting for three-hours-and-a-cjuarter, and except for a chance to slip, when he had got 48, his 84 was without a fault. Lyons and Ferris had made 22 for the Australians without the loss of a wicket when play ceased on Monday night, and this number had not been increased on the following morning when Ferris was stumped. Lyons after being missed at point was caught at 44, and then the Australian captain, joining Bannerman, treated the spec­ tators to a taste of his resolute hitting. He punished all the bowlers with equal freedom until he was caught and bowled from a lob, having made 09 out of 79 during his stay by clean hard hitting without a mistake. Rain, which had fallen overnight, here again asserted itself, and as there was no cessation the game h id to be suspended till yesterday. On resum­ ing Trott and Bonnor were soon dismissed, but Edwards proved a more useful partner for Bannerman, and though the cricket of neither batsman was lively, they did good service to the side, adding 54 runs before they separated. Turner, who came in on the re­ tirement of Jones, added fresh interest to the game by his excellent all-round hitting, and while he was in, he was responsible for 60- of the 90 runs got. Bannerman, who had
