Cricket 1889

278 CRICKET: A WEEKLY EECORD OF THE GAME. JULY 25, 1889. indeed, heavily, and his two scores of 43 and 180 were np to the very best standard of batting. Although not so successful in the two succeeding matches of Gloucestershire, his play was deemed good enough by the Selection Committee to warrant an invitation to represent the Gentlemen against the Players at the Oval three weeks ago. That their choice was judicious, too, was proved by two useful innings, and his first of 51 (not out) was equal in point of merit to any on the side. Mr. Cranston is a left-handed batsman. He plays, too, singularly upright, not always the case with left-handers, and has good defence besides no lack of freedom, being able to hit well all-round. He is, moreover, a very fair field. Our portrait is from a photograph by Messrs Hawkins & Co., of 108, King’s Road, Brighton DERBYSHIRE v. SURREY. Though, with the exception of Mr. J. Shuter, able to put their full strength into the field at Derby on Monday, Surrey were only able to beat Derbyshire, who were without the brothers Evershed and Disney, yesterday by the small majority of 48 runs. Rain caused several interruptions on the first day, and onoe on the second afternoon. The wicket was therefore never fast, and the scoring on both sides below the average, Surrey’s second total of 148 being the highest of the four completed innings. On the first day nineteen wickets fell for an aggregate of 206 runs, and only three batsmen were able to make over 20. Surrey, who won the toss, lost four of their first batsmen for 40, but Mr. Key gave the Derbyshire bowlers some trouble, and a useful stand by Sharpe and Wood, who added 35 for the eighth wicket, helped to bring the total to 123. Derbyshire lost half their wickets for 43, but Mr. Walker lent Chatterton, who was in an hour and ten minutes for his runs, useful assistance, and at the end of the first day the total was 83, with nine batsmen out The earlier part of the second innings of Surrey, who had a lead of 33, was chiefly noteworthy for the good batting of Lockwood, who was in an hour and fifty minutes for a very useful and well-played score of 43. After luncheon on Tuesday, Lohmann hit out in fine style, but no one stayed with him, and he carried out his bat for an extremely plucky and valuable innings of 38. W ith 182 to win, Derbyshire made a good start, and Sugg and Chatterton played up so well, that when a storm stopped play 41 had been got with only one batsman out. W ith 8G up for two wickets, things did not look well for Surrey, but Bowley’s bowling changed the game considerably, and on Tuesday night the score was 114 with six batsmen out. Yesterday Derbyshire had 68 to win with four wickets to fall, but only 19 had been added when the tenth wioket fell, Bowley, who in the innings took six wickets for 13 runs, and Beaumont dismissing four batsmen. In Derbyshire’s first innings, eight wickets were credited to Beaumont at a cost of 53 runs. D e r b y sh ir e . First Innings. Sugg, lbw, b Lohmann Mr. L. G.

Peel, as on the second morning, signalised the re­ sumption by some fine bowling yesterday, and only 4 runs were put on, the last three wickets falling to him without the addition of a run, With 159 to win, Yorkshire had a difficult task before them, and an easy victory for Notts seemed imminent when the fifth wicket fell for 24. Wainwright, however, lent Hall valuable assistance, and while they were to­ gether Yorkshire’ s chances were hopeful. After being in two hours, Hall played on at 68, and Wainwright, who had played a plucky and fine innings of 50, was caught, the eighth wicket, at 121. This dismissal decided the result, as the last two batsmen only added a single, and Notts thus won an interesting and well-contested match by 36 runs. Peel took ten Notts’ wickets for 73 runs.

NOTTS. The Nottinghamshire eleven yesterday fol­ lowed up their brilliant performances of this year with another victory at Sheffield, this time over their great rivals and neighbours of Yorkshire. As Mr. H. B. Daft, who has not been scoring well lately, elected to stand out, room was found in the Nottinghamshire team for Mee, while J. T. Parton, of Sheffield, engaged with the Worksop Club, who made his d e b u took Moorhouse’s place for Yorkshire. The Nottingham captain won the toss, and found the wicket —in spite of Sunday’s rains—in good condition for batting. Mr. Dixon, who opened the batting with Scotton, gave little trouble, and had Middlebrook accepted a chance of catching Gunn at short slip when that bats­ man had only made a single, the Yorkshiremen might have dismissed their opponents cheaply. As it was, Gunn, who was again missed in the long-field when he had got 60, stayed in two hours and three-quarters, and added 80 before he was out lbw. At one time the telegraph showed 200 with only four batsmen out, but the tail failed so completely before Peel’s bowling that the innings closed for 235, Peel taking five of the last six wickets. Though Hall was dismissed without a run when York- shirk went in, Lee, Wade, and Ulyett played up so well that, at the end of the day, the score was 83 for the loss of three wickets. Peel and Ulyett on Tuesday morning offered a deter mined resistance to the Nottingham bowlers, and 60 were added before the latter was bowled for a well-got 28. Peel saw Shaw, Lord Hawke, Wainwright, and Parton retire before he left. He had been in for two hours and ten minutes, and during all this time his batting was free from a fault. Notts, who for the first time this season in an important match had to go in a second time, had a lead of 24 runs, and in a bad light did not fare so well as in the first innings Scotton was again seen to great advantags, and after recent failures his double success will give general satisfaction. He was in just under two hours for his second score of 50, with only one chance, when he had got 40, Rain interrupted play for more than an hour. run out ......... b Ulyett ......... b Peel................ c Wade, b Peel... c Wainwright, b Peel............... b Wainwright... c Hunter, b Peel not out Total First Innings.
