PLATERS . The good luck wh ich had attended its pro­ moters in the first match was very much in evidence, too , in the second and last fixture o f the week. Throughout the last t hree days the weather was even more pleasant than in the opening game, and the result was a large attendance on each afternoon. Though neither side had quite its fu ll strength, on the whole the two elevens were representative, a nd the play, as w ill be seen, was fu lly worthy of the occasion , the game, wh ich had been full of interest throughout, producing a sensational finish. The w icket had not recovered from the effects of the storm , to wh ich we have already referred in our report of the opening fixture, and was never at any time easy, the ba ll g etting up at times in a very awkward way. U lyett, who captained the Players, won the toss, and at twenty minutes past twelve o ’clock on Monday Abel and Gunn opened the batting . A fine piece o f fielding by Mr. M cCorm ick got rid of the most dangerous batsman on the side, Gunn, who was run out when he had only made seven. Lee and Barnes gave little trouble, but Abel and W ard played verv carefully un til the form er was caught in the slips for a very use­ fu l twenty-three. A t luncheon the telegraph showed 74 for four wickets, and though Peel h it freely for a time, when the sixth batsman was out the total was only 105. Attewell and W ard , however, chiefly through the former’s h itting , raised the total to 147, when Ward was caught at third man. He was batting for two hours for his 50, a remarkably fine innings as t he -w icket was. On Attewell’ s dismissal Lohmann scored fast, and ultimately the innings closed for 179, a very respectable score under the circumstances. Mr. Grace took Mr. Radcliffe w ith h im to commence the batting for the Gentlemen, but both were clean bow led by Lohmann , and at the end of the day the score was 86 w ith two wickets down. Resum ing on Tuesday, Mr. Stoddart was soon caught, but Mr. Newham who followed played w ith great care while Mr. K ey hit, and 64 were added for the fourth wicket. Mr. Key ’s 41 was a good display o f free cricket, including eight 4’s. Later on, the two local amateurs, Messrs. P igg and McCorm ick, made another useful stand, and at luncheon they were still in w ith the score 134 for seven wickets. On re­ sum ing Mr. P igg continued to play c arefully while his partner h it until, a t” 157, Mr. McCormick was bowled for a very useful 20. When Mr. Pigg was bowled nine wickets were down for 184, and it did not seem as if the Gentlemen would be much in advance on the first innings. Mr. Philipson, the last man, however, hit allround with great vigour, and as many as 42 were added, of which the Oxford captain, who was not out at the close, had contributed 25. Mr. Pigg’s 35 was a deserving innings in every way. He batted with confidence as well as judgment and, his success, it is needless to say, was highly appreciated by the Hastings public. Entering on their second innings in a minority of 47, the Players lost three of their best batsmen, Abel, Lee, and Barnes, for a joint con tribution of 15. A. Ward, however, again played excellent cricket, and Gunn and he were in when play ceased on Tuesday night with the score at 62, Gunn 24 and Ward 18. When the game began yesterday, the Players were only fifteen on, and with an addition of 20 Gunn was run out for a very good innings His dismissal was a misfortune for the Players, and things after his retirement went so badly that the total on the fall of the seventh wicket was only 98. Lohmann’s hitting was tho only feature indeed of the latter part of the innings, and when he was bowled the Players were out for 119. Mr. Pigg’s bowling was again very effective, and seven of the nine wickets which fell to the bowlers were to his credit. The Gentlemen, who wanted 73 to win, made a very bad start, and in fifty minutes before lunch lost half of their wickets for 25 runs. Afterwards, though, Messrs. Read and McCor­ mick played well. When the last man, Mr. Pigg, came in, 8 runs we e still wanted to win. There was naturally great excitement, but Mr. McCormick was equal to the occasion, and he made the winning hit at a quarter past four o’clock, giving the Ge tlemen a well- earned victory, with only one wicket to spare. The success of the two Hastings amateurs, Messrs. Pigg and McCormick, was one of the best fe tures of the match. P layers . First Inni gs. Second Innings.
