Webbe’a original intention, we believe, was to have taken an amateur team to Cambridge on Thursday last to test the capa bilities of the University eleven. It was thought advisable, however, to seoure the servioes of a professional bowler in the person of Walter Wright, of Kent, and the title of the side was consequently altered from the Gentlemen of England to that of Mr. A. J. Webbe’s Eleven. The Cambridge captain, Mr. Ford, was, unfortunately, unable to play, and Mr. Mordaunt was also an absentee. The University were, as the game went, seen to great disadvantage at all points, and after a ■hort time the result was really never in doubt. Though they went in first, the batting failed altogether against the bowling of Walter Wright, Messrs. Nepean and Snand, and before lunoheon they were all out, not one of the eleven having been able to reaoh double figures. W ith the exception of Mr. Woods, too, none of the bowlers oould make any impression on the opposite batsmen, and the rate of scoring of Mr. Webbe’s eleven was so fast that 832 runs were got in three hours and forty-five minutes, an average of about ninety runs in the hour. Messrs. Nepean and Walker added 60 runs for the third wicket, and Messrs. Vernon, Pearson, and Paravicini all hit with great freedom. Mr. Pearson has not been seen in important matohea for a long time, and everyone will be glad to see him again on the cricket field with full promise of regaining his old reputation as a batsman. Six bowlers were tried for the University, but Mr. Woods alone proved successful, and, as will be seen, he took eight of the ten wickets at an average cost of under sixteen runs, by no means bad figures. Cambridge had a heavy deficit of 274 runs against them when they entered on their second innings, and though they improved on their first display there was little to call for praise in their batting on Friday morning. The two Australians, Messrs. Woods and De Little, hit freely, but there was nothing else worthy of note, and when the tenth wicket fell for 110, Mr. Webbe’s eleven were left with a decisive victory by an innings and 164 runs. The bowling of Wright and Mr. Nepean contributed greatly to this result. Wright took eleven wickets for 76 rune, and the amateur’s figures were almost as noteworthy, showing six wickets for an average of just over seven runs. T he [U n iv e r s it y . First Innings. C. P.
